Next stop. Imola, Italy.
Last year (2023) the Imola Grand Prix was cancelled due to heavy rain and flooding.

Due to heavy rains, the Santerno River flowing in close proximity to the circuit has swelled. The responsible authorities have identified a very high risk of flooding and landslides, and as a result, the Formula 1 paddock at the Enzo e Dino Ferrari circuit was evacuated on Tuesday, May 16. Due to the evacuation, it is not possible to ensure that the race can take place on the weekend as planned. During the night of May 17, all access roads to the circuit were flooded. Although the F1 paddock was unaffected, the flooding affected the F2 and F3 paddocks. Until Wednesday, the personnel responsible for preparing the race were unable to reach the circuit.
This year, it looks like good weather is smiling on them and the race will happen although it might be different as it's getting hot there. Maybe a slight rain too.
Curiosity strikes. How do racers keep themselves cool in hot weather?

2. Ice baths. This really works. I mean, I am from a high-temperature country, and whenever I go to the pool with cold water and bathe for like 2 or 3 hours. It will take hours before I feel the heat again. The only problem is, it gets you sleepy.
