F1: Session Report
2024 Azerbaijan Grand Prix - Friday
Frantic Friday in Baku
- The team took to the Baku City Circuit in Azerbaijan for the first day of this weekend's on-track running.
- Both drivers ran the Medium and Soft compound tyres in a thrice red flagged FP1 session.
- Lewis was happier with the overall car balance, clocking the second quickest time with George in P8.
- Ahead of FP2, the team made a precautionary power unit change on George's car after an irregular oil sample; that delayed the start of George's session by 25 minutes.
- He nevertheless still managed to complete running on both the Hard and Soft tyres in that second session, posting the ninth quickest time.
- Lewis was able to complete an extra six laps in FP2, on the same compounds as his team-mate, and set the third quickest time, just 0.066s shy of the pace-setting lap set by Charles Leclerc.
Driver | FP1 | FP2 | ||||||
Lewis Hamilton | 19 Laps | 1:45.859 | P2 | Medium, Soft | 22 Laps | 1:43.550 | P3 | Hard, Soft, Hard |
George Russell | 18 Laps | 1:46.516 | P8 | Medium, Soft | 16 Laps | 1:44.536 | P9 | Hard, Soft |
Lewis Hamilton
Today was a really good day. I enjoyed it from the start as the car felt strong from the first laps on track. We made some positive incremental steps on the set-up. There was nothing we had to come back on, and we continued to build throughout.
Pace wise, we didn't complete a huge number of laps on our long run in FP2. We will have to do some comparisons tonight therefore to see where our relative speed is. Our usual competitors looked strong, but I think we are there or thereabouts. That is encouraging and was our hope coming into this weekend. We will stay cautious and vigilant though. We will work hard tonight to try and find more gains and see what we can do in qualifying tomorrow.
George Russell
Today wasn't the smoothest Friday we've ever had. Unfortunately, we lost a little bit of running time with a precautionary power unit change ahead of FP2. Once we were out on track, I wasn't completely happy with the balance of the car. I was struggling to get the tyres in the right window and was lacking a little confidence. I'll work hard overnight to improve on that, step my game up for tomorrow and close the gap.
The good news is that Lewis was looking very quick out there. It encourages us that the car is strong, and we can be competitive this weekend. It looks very close between several teams, with Ferrari in particular looking strong. If we can make improvements overnight though we can aim to be in the mix for qualifying and the race on Sunday.
Andrew Shovlin, Trackside Engineering Director
Lewis had two decent sessions and finished the day happy with the car. His pace also looked sensible although we know the areas we've got to work on. Overall, we're pleased with how his weekend has started. As has been the case in recent races, it looks very tight at the front in terms of single lap, so we'll be working hard overnight to find every bit of lap time.
In comparison to Lewis, George had a more challenging day. He wasn't very happy with the balance of the car in FP1, so we spent that session trying to improve it. Shortly after FP1 finished, we spotted an issue with the power unit that led us to take the cautious approach of swapping it out for FP2. That unfortunately cost him 25 minutes of valuable track time and whilst we got to run both tyres, the programme was compromised. We'll be aiming to recover some of the lost ground with George tomorrow in FP3.

#russia #ukraine #putin - Long-range missile deal 'strategically and symbolically' vital for Ukrainians • FRANCE 24 English
13 September 2024
Ukraine’s push to ease restrictions on the use of weapons from the United States and Britain will be discussed Friday in White House talks between President Joe Biden and Prime Minister Keir Starmer. The go-ahead to use long-range missiles against targets deep inside Russia is seen as "strategically and symbolically" vital for the war effort for many Ukrainians, says France 24's reporter in Kyiv Francis Farrell.
Putin started this war
How it all started
The War in Donbass (also known as the War in Ukraine or War in Eastern Ukraine) is an ongoing armed conflict in the Donbass region of Ukraine. From the beginning of March 2014, demonstrations by pro-Russian and anti-government groups took place in the Donetsk and Luhansk oblasts of Ukraine, together commonly called the "Donbass", in the aftermath of the 2014 Ukrainian revolution and the Euromaidan movement. These demonstrations, part of a wider group of concurrent pro-Russian protests across southern and eastern Ukraine, escalated into an armed conflict between the separatist forces of the self-declared Donetsk and Lugansk People's Republics, and the Ukrainian government Prior to a change of the top leadership in August, the separatists were largely led by Russian citizens. Russian paramilitaries are reported to make up from 15% to 80% of the combatants.

#ukraine #russia #ATACMS - Green light for Ukraine to strike Russia will likely include ATACMS use, expert says • FRANCE 24
/p>
12 September 2025

She says that if the UK and US agree to green light Ukraine strikes on Russian territory, that authorisation will likely include the use of ATACMS, which will heavily hamper Russian troops and and air defence systems logistics.
