The Azerbaijan Grand Prix could see the title race blown wide open between three contenders, rather than settle into a less thrilling two-horse race.<\/p>\n
Sergio Perez recorded his first win of the season last time out in Monaco. The result sees him springboard to just six points short of Ferrari star Charles Leclerc and 15 points adrift of Red Bull teammate Max Verstappen.<\/p>\n
Baku is an esteemed street circuit, a relatively newcomer to the F1 calendar, but one that has already provided plenty of drama in its short lifespan.<\/p>\n

However, a good result here would elevate the perception of him in the minds of fans around the world.<\/p>\n When you\u2019re the other driver in a two-man team containing Max Verstappen, it\u2019s easy to slide under his shadow, it\u2019s easy to be seen as a \u2018second driver\u2019 and little more than a crutch or a wingman.<\/p>\n Perez has found himself in this unenviable position, yet he is thriving. Victory in Monaco was not a fluke, it is his reward for superb form since the second half of 2021. He has recorded seven podiums and four fourth-place finishes in his last 14 races.<\/p>\n The Mexican finished second in three of his last four races leading up to Monaco. Another victory would shift the public view of him from teammate to contender.<\/p>\n Mercedes enjoyed significant improvements in Barcelona. George Russell and Lewis Hamilton finished third and fifth respectively.<\/p>\n Monaco was a step back for them, but it was to be expected on a tight, twisty circuit. Of course, Azerbaijan is also a street circuit, but with very different characteristics to Monte Carlo.<\/p>\n Russell has been superb under the circumstances in 2022. He has finished between third and fifth in all seven races this season, displaying ideal consistency. Baku represents a good chance for Mercedes to claw their way back onto the podium.<\/p>\n Russell may be excelling with Mercedes, but Daniel Ricciardo is failing to impress at McLaren. He is firmly in the team\u2019s passenger seat with Lando Norris leading the charge in 2022.<\/p>\n Ricciardo\u2019s race finishes in 2022 are as follows: 14, RET, 6, 18, 13, 12, 13. Compare that record to Norris, who boasts five top-eight finishes in his last six races, and it\u2019s easy to see that pressure is mounting on the Australian.<\/p>\n Only Ricciardo and his mechanics can diagnose where his career has gone off the track but he will be desperate to claw his way back into form ahead of the summer break. He has a victory, two retirements and a ninth-place finish in Baku to date.<\/p>\n Check out our Azerbaijan Grand Prix predictions guide coming soon\u2026<\/em><\/p>\n If you\u2019re looking for something else to watch, check out our\u00a0<\/b>TV Guid<\/b>e<\/strong><\/span><\/a> or visit our Sport<\/a> hub.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n The latest issue of Radio Times magazine is on sale now \u2013\u00a0subscribe now<\/a>\u00a0and get the next 12 issues for only \u00a31.
