The FIA (Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile) has made some minor changes to the Baku track after the two practice sessions held on the first day of the Formula 1 Grand Prix of Europe in the Azerbaijani capital on June 17, Trend reports.
After problems with kerb retaining bolts coming loose and causing cuts on cars’ left rear tyres during the practice sessions, the exit kerbs at turns 6 and 12 have been removed, and replaced with the painted versions.
The FIA has also changed the location and the length of the pit entry, as the drivers confirmed that, because of undulations on the main straight, they found it hard to see the pit entry white line.
