Endless Marathon 170 km from Iran
The Azerbaijan Grand Prix of Formula 1 will be held in Baku from September 24 to 26, despite its proximity to Iran and regional disturbances. This decision is based on security assessments that deem the event safe to conduct. The race will take place on Saturday instead of Sunday, in line with a local request and to coincide with a commemorative day in Baku. Formula 1 relies on Azerbaijani airspace as a major transit corridor for most European-Asian flights, especially after Russian airspace closures and efforts to avoid flying over Iran. This ensures the safe arrival of teams and equipment despite regional tensions. Currently, there are no travel advisories preventing entry to Baku, which has allowed the race to proceed. The event is considered particularly significant due to its geopolitical and sensitive location and is scheduled to continue until 2030.
