WEEKEND WARM-UP: Papaya rules, Hadjar rumours and Verstappen's Nordschleife outing

The Formula 1 paddock hits the streets of Baku this weekend for the Azerbaijan Grand Prix, with plenty of topics up for discussion during Thursday's media day.

With the title fight heating up in the wake of McLaren's team orders at Monza, Oscar Piastri gave his thoughts on the latest 'papaya rules' having allowed rival and team mate Lando Norris back in front at the last race.

Speculation has grown that Isack Hadjar will be racing alongside Max Verstappen at Red Bull next season, but the Frenchman dismissed any such rumours for now.

Verstappen, meanwhile, gave details on his recent Nurburgring Nordschleife outing, with the four-time World Champion expected to return to the infamous track in GT3 machinery later this month.
