I wasn't on the edge of my seat, but I wasn't bored either. I've come to really like the Baku circuit. I think it's an excellent mix of driver discipline, and I'm all for the non-DRS slipstream opportunities. The track looks great on the TV, and some of the onboard shots are (nearly) up there with Monaco as far as I'm concerned. I even like the buildings. So from a TV-viewing perspective, ignoring trackside fans and politics, even a dull race at Baku gets a few points for me, hence my 4.
Maybe this is also a factor with others?
