Once again, as is customary this season, the four fastest qualifying times were shared between the Ferrari and Red Bull drivers. And once again, the best time went to Charles Leclerc, who will be the poleman again, followed by Sergio Perez, Max Verstappen and his teammate Carlos Sainz.
The driver from Monaco lost the leadership he had for much of the season (see the standings table by clicking here) and Ferrari‘s rude mistake in Monaco did not allow a victory that seemed certain on a circuit more favorable to the Italian team. That is why they will seek to return to the top of the standings this weekend, which will also have the Sonsio Grand Prix at Road America of the IndyCar Series, the Toyota Save Mart 350 of Nascar and the final of the 24 Hours of Le Mans of the FIA World Endurance Championship.

Azerbaijan Grand Prix 2022: Storylines
It has been a constant throughout the season that Charles Leclerc has obtained pole position and for various reasons he cannot finally win the race, although probably the grossest mistake of all was the one that Ferrari made at the Monaco Grand Prix, when they called Sainz and Leclerc to the pits almost at the same time, causing both to lose time and the winner of the GP to have been Perez of Red Bull.
They can no longer afford these mistakes, especially considering that the Monaco racer lost the standings lead to Verstappen and has Checo Perez following him very closely in third place (only 6 points difference). The Ferrari racer will have to be bold to avoid being overtaken, especially on the long straight that is almost at the start, and to take advantage of the middle part of the circuit, which has several curves.
