Max Verstappen starts today's race on pole after overtaking Leclerc's Ferrarri in the dying laps of yesterday's sprint race. Lewis Hamilton starts a lowly 14th and has reportedly "written off" his chances of fighting for another world championship. The 2022 Emilia Romagna Grand Prix starts at 2pm today, Sunday 24th April.
Last week, Charles Leclerc once again proved unstoppable. The Ferrari driver took control of the race after Max Verstappen suffered a technical failure. Leclerc is now 46 points ahead of his main rival in the Drivers' Championship, and 34 points ahead of Mercedes' George Russell in second.
This weekend's race is the closest on the calendar to Ferrari HQ in Maranello – so expect the Tifosi to be out in force. The 2022 Emilia Romagna Grand Prix takes place over over 63 laps of the 4.909-kilometre Autodromo Enzo e Dino Ferrari, better known as Imola. The weather in Imola is forecast to be a cloudy 19°C with a chance of rain.
