According to Offsideplus.az, the claim was made by Auto Motor und Sport. It will take at least seven weeks to build the track and prepare the city for the race, plus workers from abroad. However, travel restrictions or quarantine obligations make things difficult.

Apart from the competitions in Azerbaijan, the fate of the Monaco and Canadian Grand Prix is ​​also unknown. The final decision is expected in late February. The cancellation of one of these three Grand Prix could pave the way for a Formula 1 race in Turkey.

It should be noted that the Azerbaijani Grand Prix will be held on June 4-6.
