Actually looking at F1 news on Youtube but I come across the  F1 Academy Race Highlights in Barcelona 2023 actually it was a great watch and a fast Lap and an all-girls race and I was amazed that there are a Filipina Driver with them and it was Bianca Bustamante and I never know that just like F1 there are site and Calendar for the racers and here are the results

I am really excited about watching this and Simulation Racing I think there is a different sport in this one than with the F1 to F3 racing and other racing platforms, I think it is a good thing to give a try to make an esports Racing game for players that wants racing but doesn't want to drive a real race car, it could be a help for people that doesn't want the real deal but would like to race in the comfort of their home or a simulation machine,

And right now because we don't have the Imola Grand Prix and right now Monaco is on the verge of getting canceled as well, I think we really need something like this, but not all Racer can play and race at the Sim Racing but everyone can surely enjoy Sim Racing without most of the risk involved in the real race,

Upon posting this the Stream of Max Verstappen team for Imola GP fundraising is starting in just 5 minutes, here are the Links



https://www.twitch.tv/popout/teamredline/extensions/naty2zwfp7vecaivuve8ef1hohh6bo/panel

Edit:

It is already starting and I am watching it now,

Looking at his youtube channel now I don't see any streaming video of the sim race maybe it was on Twitch and so many can donate and fundraiser for a cause, but anyway here is the link to the Team Read Line Twitch channel, and waiting eagerly for the streaming race that may happen later https://www.twitch.tv/teamredline/schedule I haven't seen any schedule race yet but maybe we will see it later

F1 2023 game looks very real and that is just seeing the trailer what if I got to play one of the simulation games like this it will surely be stunning to play, for sure it looks realistic enough and they will surely add more features those track bumps to feel that you have a bump on the wheel it is really great now I want a simulation set up of my own,

Here is an update on the Real Racers never quit event here are the schedule and the list of Sim Racer and Pro Drivers,

Race 1 : Formula 3 - Imola
Race 2 : Mazda MX5 - Imola
Race 3 : Formula Ford - Imola
Race 4 : Toyota GR86 - Imola

Yes, that is exactly why we shouldn't be discussing about or posting any links about a race until we get closer to the start day such as 5-6 days before so we know it will actually begin for it's scheduled timeframe according to the FIA.
If Monaco GP doesn't end up happening then this means there will only be 21 races to be done within the season unless they can come up with a solution.

He has been streaming his sessions in these racing simulators on his channel for youtube. The last one was a couple of weeks ago, to show he trains virtually all the time even when the tracks are not available for one reason or another.

There is the new F1 23 coming out soon and they dropped a trailer for it a few days ago.
It will be the first iteration with red flags so to add a little more realism.

It was the worst possible thing to happen and it did, many have thought that it is just a simple rain and it will not turn into a flood, but it was a storm, and a surge might happen and worse than that what the storm has left flooded road that is non-passable, power cut off in the region, no available manpower to help with the F1 equipment to be moved from Imola to Monaco, and another thing if the equipment can not be moved Monaco Grand Prix could get canceled aswell,


Max Verstappen is quite familiar with Sim Racing you can say that he is a genius when it comes to handling Sim Racing and this event is a fundraiser for the people of the region of Imola, well this is today and where can I watch this? it is a great watch because they will be racing on a simulation circuit of Imola Circuit itself, that is why this is interesting,

It was really a good decision for the F1 authority to prioritize human life 1st than getting this Dangerous Circuit a go now become even worst, I really think Max Verstappen won the recent Imola Grand Prix last year and if this continued without any hustle of rain then the result will surely be the same,

Well, Monaco is not really out for now, but if they can not allocate the equipment and the trailers of each team to Monaco next week then Monaco will be called off, or maybe rescheduled,

This could simply give time for other teams to upgrade their machine parts to have an equalized performance with the Red Bull Machines,

Well, For me I think there is still a little time for the following reschedule but in the recent video that I have watched the Calendar is now congested and there is no room for Rescheduling the event, all we can do is wait,


WOW! great find seeing this I think that it is a great thing for making a Sim Racing to be taken as a fundraiser to donate in the Imola Region for all damages and families that need it and Team Redline the Sim racing team of Max Verstappen has come-up of a thing to not completely replace the Imola Grand Prix, but a substitute to it, and with it, a Profesional Sim Racers will be racing with Max Verstappen himself and I have watched a video that Max Verstappen is a genius Sim Racer aswell, here is the VIDEO

Now diving deeper into this Sim Event that was titled "Real Racers Never Quits" here are the confirmed Drivers that will participate in the fundraising event where they will race in the Simulation of the Imola Circuit

It was a difficult task to accomplish and with certain problems with the electricity and the road field with Debry it seems there is no hope at all however Monaco can surely wait there is still some time to transfer all those equipment and the drivers to Imola to Monaco, and in the reports for the update on the Imola GP flood and rain there are a total of 3 deaths, 3 missing and a thousand injuries, in the region where is flooded, it was really not a great sight but I think when the flood and rain subside they will likely be moving from Imola to Monaco, there is no way they can reschedule Imola because the Calendar is really cramp aswell,

But there is news that Max Verstappen is going to fundraise for an event and could replace the Imola Grand Prix, well not totally replace the real deal but it is just a Simulation and yeah they are playing it out Sim Racing and they will race in the Virtual Circuit of the Imola GP Circuit and this Sim Race was organized by his team, The Team Redline this will be on May 21, #RRNQ

Oh damn it's worse than we thought it seems, but anyway it is right the teams are prioritizing life saving emergency actions instead of logistics to move equipment.

Every single effort and expertise should rightly be moved for the floods action first. We can survive with Imola and Monaco out.

And on the bright side it gives a lot more room for teams lagging to prepare and strategize.

Does anybody know if seasons are short because of cancellations, do the races get replaced or that's it?

Well, life is more important than race or career, we had only one life, and due to the Imola 1994 GP there are 2 lives that are lost and in this season of the F1 race I really think it is better to cancel the race instead of suffering some great losses that can not be replaced, those destroyed track in the Circuit, destroyed equipment and things with the F1 can be replaced but if certain life were lost because of the latest situation then I think that can not be replaced at all for me F1 did the right thing in calling off the race,


This is going to be sad news for the F1 Community, for Imola Grand Prix was Cancelled, and if the Monaco Grand Prix would be canceled as well this is going to be a hard time for the F1 fans and if the situation in Imola gets even worst then there is a huge chance Monaco would be Cancelled but that surely depends on the situation in Imola if and only if it gets even worst, but the next F1 race is on next week and they can not afford to reschedule the Imola Grand Prix, because the calendar is surely congested for other scheduled Grand Prix,

Imagine moving 200000 people with rain and small towns under 50cm of water.
In Italy, there are a lot of rivers and this rain was very very heavy 14 of these rivers overflowed, the electricity has been stopped for days.

Even the main road has been shut down for days.

How people can move if the roads are off and how can people work without electricity?

Oh! Yes, I see I remember that everything had stopped due to Covid-19, and because I was not aware of the F1 back then I didn't realize at all that it also was stopped, well at least I wasn't really aware of the F1, but thinking about it yes Covid-19 Pandemic really was the worst there was nothing no all kinds of sports, no going outside, so no outing there are forbidden places that the authority could arrest you for not obeying, families can not see each other, and there are a lot of deaths, pretty much I really don't want to get back to that situation again, and yes there are a lot of GP that has been canceled and pretty much I am not really aware of it back then,

I recently watched a video that the Monaco Grand Prix is also at risk of getting canceled aswell, In the recent Imola Grand Prix Cancelation because of the storm and floods, the recent region and the city were totally devastated and so flooded roads and houses are still sinking on flood and  the roads are filled with blocked and unpassable Road, because of it there is no way F1 equipment on trailer trucks can no be a move to Monaco, due to the circumstances and Imola Personnel are busy right now with helping the people in need, so the F1 team are on their own, so yeah that was it and let's just wait if what may happen,

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hK804UPNqBY

Oh wow. I didn't even realize this had happened until I saw this posts.

No wonder if you got to Sportsbet website and looked for Formula 1 odds, there was nothing about this race.

I totally agree, it was no question at all whether they would race, when there are more important things in life (literally life and death) to take care of.

Hope that everything recovers in a timely manner. Never knew it could flood like that in Europe too

It was a disaster it was a terrible week for the F1 and for Italy for having bad weather and as you have said Imola is not a developed place and a likely disaster like this can truly become a terrible sight but I really wish Italy and Emilia Romania region will recover soon and now the race is taking place on Monaco where we likely need to focus now because this is another track that gives Verstappen a hardtime when it rained,

Not just the conditions of the track was affected but more importantly the town in the surrounding areas.
They were devastated where 13 people are dead and thousands displaced because of it. You certainly can't continue on with a race where people have suffered and are currently recovering right now.

Imola is not the most developed area and the infrastructure isn't modern so it was easy for the high level and the quickness of the water to cause so much damage. I believe Bologna is the nearest metropolitan city where it is located in Northern Italy.

Sad but the Imola Grand Prix is needed to be canceled, because of the Thunder Storms and flooded area in the Autodromo Enzo e Dino Ferrari Circuit right now the F1 race is moving on to Monaco the Grand Prix De Monaco 2023 where Drivers will need to get ready for the Circuit de Monaco, and the recent report that because of the Flood, there is a huge 100 mm rain that could struck Italy until Wednesday evening so Sunday race would not be possible because there are still rain for that day, that is why the race is called off,


We are surely going to move to the new location and this time Monaco Grand Prix because of not bad weather but a devastating thunderstorm and flood, it was really insane seeing those cards end up in the flood, I have really no word for it, but here we are currently moving forward and in recent recent Monaco GP in the 2022 did you all know that Sergio Perez won the last Monaco GP while Carlos Sainz was 2nd, and 3rd was Max Verstappen while it is raining back then in Monaco, here is the highlights of the race back in the Monaco Grand Prix 2022

You are quite new to F1 from what I remember you mentioning in their previous post.
So this is not the first time they have suspended and even cancelled an F1 race before.
Just a couple of years ago they cancelled the Australian GP due to covid but they waited until everybody had already arrived and were at the gates to make the call. They received alot of flack due to this.
Then before the season started for this year they cancelled the China GP.

I never thought that a Race could be suspended like that but for me, It is a good decision for F1 to cancel the Imola Race, it is a Dangerous track, and adding the wet track and the time needed to prepare for the Imola Circuit it will be a much-needed preparation because of the Current situation, now the Emilia Romagna GP has been called off



So we are now moving to Monaco on May 26 - 28 actually after seeing the previous accident on the Imola Circuit in 1994 I was really scared for the driver's safety let's just say it is a blessing in disguise from above that the race was halted this week now proceeding to the Circuit de Monaco and for people that are new in the F1 race just like me I think this is details for the next F1 Grand Prix next week

FORMULA 1 GRAND PRIX DE MONACO 2023

Circuit de Monaco


Details of the circuit

Number of laps: 78
Length of the circuit: 3,34 km
Total distance: 260,52 km
2018 winner: Sergio Pérez (Red Bull) - 1:56:30.265 (64 laps)
Fastest lap 2018: Lando Norris (McLaren-Mercedes) - 1:14.693

From what I had watched earlier today right after that post from the video, you can see how it looks:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-JafUBy1Qw8

The paddock from one scene looks it is not blocking anything and is actually dislocated at one part and can let in water onto the track which nobody wants during a race. Especially the drivers.
From the same youtube channel you can see their reactions to this cancellation:
F1 Drivers REACT as Imola Grand Prix Cancelled!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HM-I3yHLmNo

On ESPN about 9 hours ago have announced it has been the decision the FIA made to cancel it:
BREAKING NEWS: Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix will NOT go ahead | ESPN F1
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ij8bC2dlk3M

So there you have it!

Give me a short answer if you know is Italy Grand Prix postponed or it is totally canceled for this season?
I saw there was a lot of rain and floods all around Europe but I expected things will calm down until weekend.
On official website they say race is going to happen as planned:
https://www.formula1.com/en/latest/article.breaking-update-on-the-emilia-romagna-grand-prix-at-imola.14xk8GLh2Lr8wBGdJqhxnO.html

I am sure they all know the danger and even with those safety protocols you will still never know what may happen in every aspect of precaution they make there is still a chance a huge accident may occur it is like watching a final destination movie they never know what hit them, well there maybe unexpected things that could still happen an F1 Machine could still slide and skid the track,

But, just like you I also hope nothing bad happens this weekend,


Sad to say but because of the Storm and Flood the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix or Imola Circuit would need to call off, or they have decided not to proceed with the race, it was a very sad Decision but it is for the safety of all the drivers, and the personnel for the F1 so I think it is safe to say we will not have a race this weekend and Imola will need to be canceled and need to be called off,

Here are the links Emilia Romagna Grand Prix, and the Video
