She said that the race is the greatest sporting event in the world after the World Cup and the Olympic Games.

"European Grand Prix is broadcast in 187 world countries,” she said. “More than 500 million people watch it.”

“The competitions will take place in the center of Baku,” she said. “They offer great opportunities for Azerbaijan. The race contributes to the growth of tourist flow to Azerbaijan.”

"As Baku’s roads refer to the Group of Routes, these competitions will be organized in the central streets of the capital,” she said. “The roads will be repaired and asphalt pavement will be renovated as part of the preparation for "Formula 1". This prestigious sporting event will be one of the further major success achieved by Azerbaijan at the international level."
