F1 Emilia Romagna Grand Prix - LIVE!
A very damp Imola welcomes Formula One today for first practice ahead of the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix.
Charles Leclerc arrives at the Autodromo Internazionale Enzo e Dino Ferrari with a healthy championship lead and an even healthier backing from the Ferrari fans in Italy.
Max Verstappen and Red Bull are out to end their rollercoaster start to the season when it comes to reliability, and the pace is certainly there for the reigning world champion.
The same cannot be said for the Mercedes duo of Lewis Hamilton and George Russell, who are performing surprisingly well in the standings but fear their upgrade package will arrive too late for a title charge.
This weekend poses plenty of new questions to the paddock with just a single practice session to lock in their setups, before qualifying on Friday evening and the sprint on Saturday. That will decide the grid for another enthralling round of this new F1 season.
