WEEKEND WARM-UP: Who are the favourites as the European season kicks off in Imola?

Date:

After a week off, Formula 1 teams are back in action with the first European leg of the 2025 season – the Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix kicking off another busy triple header sequence…

As always, there are plenty of talking points whizzing through the paddock, none more so than Alpine’s dramatic post-Miami reshuffle that saw Oliver Oakes depart as team boss and Jack Doohan demoted from a race seat.

AS IT HAPPENED: All the build-up ahead of the Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix weekend

In Doohan’s place comes Franco Colapinto, the Argentinian racer who impressed for Williams during a super-sub stint last season. But how will the popular youngster fare this time out?

Elsewhere, can McLaren continue their impressive form after charging to a 1-2 in Miami? Will Mercedes or an upgraded Red Bull throw a spanner in the works? Or can home favourites Ferrari give the Tifosi something to cheer about?

Hit go on the video player above to join Laura Winter, Lawrence Barretto, Ruth Buscombe Divey and Davide Valsecchi for all the latest news and forecasts ahead of the Imola weekend.
