Emilia Romagna Grand Prix 2022 Weather Forecast: What is the weather forecast at Imola this weekend?

Emilia Romagna Grand Prix 2022 Weather Forecast: We saw rain in Imola last year that made the race exciting. More of the same this time? 

F1 fans all over the world are eagerly waiting for the first Sprint weekend of the year. Imola, one of the most iconic tracks in Formula 1 history, is set to host the fourth round of the 2022 F1 season.

Last year, the drivers tackled a tricky but exciting outing in Imola. Lewis Hamilton took pole position, followed by the Red Bull duo of Sergio Perez and Max Verstappen. Before the race on Sunday, there was heavy rainfall around the circuit.

The race however, was won by Verstappen, who drove a brilliant race from start to finish. Hamilton took P2, followed by McLaren’s Lando Norris in P3.

This year, Hamilton and Verstappen go into the race fifth and sixth in the Championship respectively. The Title protagonist so far this season has been Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc, who will look to add more points to his already massive lead at the summit.
