Formula 1 heads to Italy this weekend, and following two practice sessions on Friday, FP3 takes place on Saturday ahead of the all-important qualifying session.
The action at the Autodromo Internazionale Enzo e Dino Ferrari kicked off with world championship leader Oscar Piastri topping FP1, before doing the same in FP2, showcasing McLaren’s dominance at the track.
As the first Italian race weekend of the campaign, Imola marks Lewis Hamilton’s debut home race with his new Ferrari team and the track is even closer to home for the youngster who replaced him at Mercedes, Kimi Antonelli.
The 18-year-old hails from the capital of the region, Bologna, and recently revealed his plans to sleep in his own bed at home before the race where he has invited all his current classmates.
The Mercedes rookie made history last time out in Miami, becoming the youngest-ever pole-sitter of all race formats in F1 history after claiming the fastest time in sprint qualifying.
Can Mercedes impress in front of Antonelli’s home crowd or will championship leader Piastri continue to get the better of his closest rivals across the weekend?
