Published 4 days ago3 minute read

F2 Imola GP and Formula E Tokyo E-Prix are also coming up this weekend.

F1 heads to Imola this weekend (May 16-18) for the Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix (GP), which kicks off the European triple-header. But that’s not all; there’s plenty more racing in store, with the F2 support series returning after a short break. Formula E, meanwhile, heads to Tokyo for its first double-header in the Japanese city.

Keep reading to know the full schedule (IST timings) and key talking points.

F1 Imola GP

After the opening flyaway races, the Imola GP will be the first European race of the year. With most of the teams based close by and the race kicking off another triple-header (with Imola followed by Monaco and Spain), expect to see teams bringing some significant upgrades to Imola.

In the past, the Imola GP has usually been a one-stop race. However, that could change this year, with a slight chance of rainfall on race day. Moreover, Pirelli is bringing its softest tyres for the very first time with the hopes of further spicing up the races.

McLaren is currently dominating, with Oscar Piastri leading the championship by 16 points from his teammate Lando Norris.

All F1 Imola GP sessions will be streamed live on the Fancode and F1 TV apps.

Formula E tokyo E-Prix

Formula E returns to the streets of Tokyo, but this time, the venue will be hosting two back-to-back races. After seven rounds, Nissan’s Oliver Rowland is the driver to beat, holding a 48-point advantage over Porsche’s Antonio Felix da Costa.

The resurgent Mahindra Racing team will hope to continue its strong form. The Indian squad has scored points in every single round so far this year, and Nyck de Vries even clinched a podium finish at the earlier this month.
