The architecture of those buildings looks so Soviet that it hurts.

The thing that I find funny is the self congragulatory signs along the side of the track. “Well done Baku” and “Baku welcomes all of you” everywhere. Might as well say “we’re not as bad as the world says we are. Really."

There seemed to be more garbage bags, and other plastic bags than actual spectators, or just people for that matter.

I noticed that as well. Looked like a small main grandstand, with large Paddock Club on top, and maybe 3 corner grandstands. Bernie doesn’t care as he already has his check and made friends with another world leader so when if he needs to flee the UK he has a safe haven.
