Race Expectations
The Imola GP is one of the iconic races and home to the Italian Grand Prix in the 1980s. Max Verstappen is the only driver with the most wins in Imola. Winning the 2025 Emilia Romagna Grand Prix is very difficult for him as his Red Bull car doesn't have enough juice. The home team, Ferrari, are also going through a bad phase, so they are also out of the competition. We predict that any driver from Mercedes or McLaren will win the race, and let's see what Verstappen will do in this race.
