You're gonna love this one! A tour of the circuit, a look at the old town plus other stuff including why there's a huge whack of Armenian military equipment smack bang in the middle of the city hall compliments of www.canity.com the world's best online staff training platform.

    Baku is the first and only F1 race I have been to, it was an unforgettable experience, loved every moment of it. While we had seats at the start finish line, I arranged to watch the practice sessions from a balcony in the old town. The sound of the engines bouncing off the building walls was absolutely thrilling. As a professional photographer myself, it was the first time I photographed sportscars, and I loved it. I want to do exactly what you do Kym! I hope to get the chance one day!
