Guess the Pole 2022: Round 8 - Azerbaijan [+Results]

[XcraigX]

Time for the best street race on the calendar right now. The Azerbaijan GP has thrown up some surprizes in the past and the money is on another surprizing race this year. The Ferrari has been the best overall, but the RB is the fastest in a straight line. With the long straight in Baku, that should provide an advantage to Max. Additionally, the Mercedes has shown some promise (but failed to deliver so far) and could affect the results. Unfortunately, their qualifying has been much slower than race pace, so Ferrari and RB should be setting the pole time between them.

Just a general note... all the FP1 start times this year seem to be pushed back into the evening local time. Great for allowing more time for GTP, but will the cooler evening weather affect the lap times?

Get your guesses in before the deadline!
