The Formula One World Championship heads to Baku, Azerbaijan, for the European Grand Prix on Sunday, June 19.

It will mark the first ever race at the Baku City Circuit.

At 3.7 miles, the track is only beaten by the Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps in terms of length on the current F1 calendar. The street circuit features many long straights and 90-degree corners, intended to create passing opportunities. It also features a lot of close buildings, including a castle.

In the above video, Gulhuseyn Abdullayev takes you for a spin around F1’s latest circuit ahead of the upcoming Grand Prix.

Formula One has one more stop before Baku, with the Canadian GP at Montreal on Sunday, June 12.
