Going Into This Race
Pre-Race Report
Previous race
Hamilton won the Portuguese Grand Prix — his 92nd career victory, breaking Michael Schumacher’s all-time record of 91. Bottas finished second, 25 seconds back, with Verstappen third.
Milestones
This is the 28th Formula One event at Imola and the first since the 2006 San Marino Grand Prix. Kimi Räikkönen is the only driver entered who has previously raced at the circuit in Formula One, having competed there from 2001 to 2006. The race weekend runs over two days rather than the usual three, with a single 90-minute practice session on Saturday morning before qualifying — there is no Friday running.
Tyre choices
Pirelli brings the C2, C3, and C4 compounds — the middle range of the five compounds available.
Practice
Hamilton finished the sole 90-minute practice session fastest, ahead of Verstappen and Bottas.
