A photographer's roof with a view in Baku

Beyond the purpose of capturing the day's action, F1 photographers - many of which are artists in their own right - strive for the unique angle that blends movement and aesthetics.

The Azerbaijan Grand Prix offers its original backdrop from many vantage points but our good friend Laurent Charniaux from XPB Images went out of his way to get a bit high in Baku and snap a bird's eye shot.

Credit here also goes to Laurent's colleague Mamoru Atsuta for capturing this great 'roof with a view' moment.
