Formula 1 is about to come to us, the Enzo and Dino Ferrari racetrack is ready to host the entire paddock of the most important car championship in the world. A return, after last year the event was canceled due to the heavy floods that hit Emilia-Romagna. Imola is preparing in his own way, with a full house and with all the desire to push Ferrari towards victory. The red will arrive for the home stage with a nice package of updates, with the hope of giving its home crowd a joy to remember. Let’s see all the timetables for this Italian weekend and also how we get there.
Formula 1 is preparing for the big party in Imola
Formula 1 arrives at this weekend after Lando Norris’ first career victory. The Briton and McLaren want to confirm themselves as second force behind Red Bull, but Ferrari, as mentioned, is about to bring substantial updates for the home race. In fact, the SF-24 will feature many changes. The Prancing Horse wants to respond to the Woking house and wants to understand if he can worry the Austrian house. The two standard bearers in red can’t wait to try the new car and can’t wait to receive all the affection from their fans. Red Bull remains the first favorite, with Max Verstappen wanting to do it again after Miami.
Desire for redemption for the two Mercedes drivers Lewis Hamilton and George Russell in clear crisis. The German manufacturer must find the key to the problem because rejoicing over the conquest of a handful of points per weekend is not what the status of the silver arrows is chasing. Haas with Nico Hulkenberg wants to continue its streak of scoring points. Alpine would also like to touch up the points, while Williams is still chasing its first points. A characteristic of the Imola circuit is that of gravel outside the corners, an interesting feature, which could cause even more difficulty for the drivers.
