Running Over Prejudices in a Pink London Cab
hate this race they dont speak how people, citizens, pedestrians , drivers suffer before and after this event organisation because of terrible uncomfortable constructions that totally makes this city disaster for all of us every year. Noone cares about people suffering this event.
Thank you for information.
Спасибо❤
Where can I buy a mezrab for Azerbaijani Tar? I am in America and it is impossible to find!! I can only find mezrab for Persian Tar, so I am currently using that. Thanks in advance! 🙏
All belong to Iran.
Allah vergisi və böyük əmək. Var olun, sevimli Elmira xanım!
❤❤❤❤❤❤ Greetings from South Africa Johannesburg I'm so in love with Azerbeijan.
they say they put down "temporary" asphalt over the cobblestones. Does that mean, they remove the asphalt after the race, every year, and put it down again, the following year? It seems like the cobblestone streets would be more beautiful for regular people. I wonder if they are gone forever in these parts of Baku.
I greet all guests coming to Azerbaijan
Ingiloy bayramı <3

wtf
Sən də F1'ə görə acından ölənlərdənsən?
This country and the circuit fascinates me.
Brief information about #Azerbaijan :) 1. The world's first oil refinery was built in Baku. As the first country to export Caspian oil to the West, Azerbaijan is also the world's oldest oil exporter. In addition, in 1848, for the first time in the world, industrial refining of oil began in Baku. 2. The Azerbaijan Democratic Republic, which declared its independence in 1918, became the first Democratic Republic in the east. Although the republic lasted only 23 months, it regained its independence in 1991 with the collapse of the USSR. 3. Azerbaijan is the first Muslim country in the world to give women the right to vote and stand for election, before the United States and Switzerland. It should be noted that women were given this right in Azerbaijan in 1918. 4. The first musical opera in the East was staged in Baku. This opera was "Leyli and Majnun" by #UzeyirHajibeyov. 5. The largest number of IDPs forcibly expelled from their country in the world as a result of #Armenia's aggressive policy is in Azerbaijan. 6. Azerbaijan was the fastest growing country in the world in 2006, and according to World Bank statistics, the country with the most reforms in 2009.
Why did they make this crap circuit. Could have used this money somewhere else

R.I.P Charlie Whiting
R.I.P. CHARLIE
Fun Fact: Indianapolis was the first F1 track with SAFER barriers not Baku.
Interlagos even has a SAFER barrier so Baku is actually the third F1 track to have one
Miss you Charlie

No one: Captions: "Welcome to Becca's City Circuit"
Imagine covering the original cobblestone for three days of racing a year .. glad they didn't allow this craziness in Copenhagen - 9 weeks of road construction and closure EACH YEAR
The tar or setar as it is more properly called is originally a 3 stringed instrument named as such in the indo european, specifically Iranian languages (se = 3 and tar = string). To the extent that Azeris (A Turkic people with a Turkcic language) borrow from the Iranian language and have their own deep roots in this region and history with this instrument, the tar can also be considered Azeri however most would agree that the tar is a pre islamic instrument most closely related to Iran
Who else misses Charlie Whiting, cos I do, R.I.P. you’ll never be forgotten ❤️
Just amazing to know the Baku track history ❤️🏁
