Summary
We looked ahead to what is set to be Imola’s final Formula 1 race - for now at least - in the latest edition of The Race F1 Podcast.
Jon Noble and Josh Suttill join Edd Straw in Italy to discuss whether the classic track deserved to stay on the calendar or F1 has outgrown it.
We also look ahead to Franco Colapinto’s return and whether he can make a success of what’s initially only a five-race run in the Alpine, as well as addressing the situation surrounding resigned team principal Oli Oakes.
Expectations for upgrades and what we’ve learned about how the FIA interprets the rules surrounding tyre cooling are also discussed, along with the potential effect of the debut of the C6 tyre compound.
