We are back at one of the most historical tracks on the calendar! Find out who topped FP1
After a unfortunate cancellation due to heavy flooding in the Emilia Romagna region, we are back at the Autodromo Enzo e Dino Ferrari with the first practice session. Here's what happened:
- Nico Hulkenberg made his debut in Imola. Not a sentence you'd expect to see, but it's true. He never raced at this track in his entire motorsports career
- Alex Albon red flagged the session with a technical issue (engine failure) after nearly 20 minutes, pulling over to the side of the track with limited disruption
- Rookie Ollie Bearman jumped in to the car in place of Kevin Magnussen for one of Haas's mandated rookie drives. The team praised him on the radio for "doing a good job" during the session
- Several drivers including Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen went wide on the track after taking corners quickly and hitting the kerbs
