We have a race with the undoubted prediction of Ver, Ver, Ver (Checo!?) but perhaps the long-awaited 33 will come true.  Cool

Damn...  I hope everybody's doing ok over there.  And even if the place isn't in an emergency, if there's going to be a lot of rain, I think it's better not to let the fans waste their time, money and the effort of travelling to the venue just to sit there and get wet with the FIA not allowing the drivers to race.  It happened at Spa I think a couple of years ago and there were also a couple of other races.  Not worth it imho.

Anyway, I guess we're off straight to Monaco.  Verstappen should win it without any shenanigans from Perez.  Grin

It happened exactly last year in Belgium when we were all waiting for the race to start after the FIA delaying and delaying the race for over 4 hours and let Verstappen completel 2 laps and he was awarded the race.I strongly agree with you that in here at Emilia Romagna race was the right decision to cancel it but in several other places where because of the rain we have not raced is because nowadays drivers are puss*es compared to what the drivers used to be in the 1980-2000 era where they have raced in much more dangerous conditions than last year Belgium GP,unfortunately it is FIA and their management which is not doing a great job regarding such cases.

agree, it is a right decision, probably only viable decision at the moment
you can't have race, when people are endangered by floods, and cannot live normal

not sure if it will be possible to have on later date, or season will end-up without this race? nevertheless, let's first see flood situation resolved, and race will have to wait

According to the statement they have shared with us it looks like it is possible for us to see this race again this season. However the calendar is quite tight you know so I don't know if they would like to make it more difficult for drivers and teams both. But one thing is for sure that this isn't a postponement to a near date as it is rather a cancellation.

It is a really unfortunate incident indeed. We have seen so many race tracks under heavy rain conditions but we don't see this kind of emergencies very often. I hope they can solve the issues as soon as possible.

From what I'm seeing, it looks like they're just going to expand the current contract from 2025. to 2026. to mitigate this cancelation.

It has been so for a couple of days now and the weather with flooding in May is not normal at all for a Mediterranean country like Italy and it is indeed an unfortunate event for all of us F1 fans who think of Sunday without F1 race as a really boring Sunday.

There are some things which I call "good complications" and this mean that teams have more time to work on their upgrades which we will most likely see how much each car has improved after the Monaco GP,as in Monaco I think if we have rain is anybody game and even without rain if some of the teams other than Redbull gets the pole position.The real performance upgrade will be seen in a great track like that of Barcelona which I can't wait to see.

Well i think we have a little bit much of rain....

And yes you cant make a race when the people around are suffering by a flood.

So the "new" Mercedes with side pots needs to wait a little bit more to showing us what it is.

It was definitely the right decision to cancel the race, the Grand Prix could only have gone ahead with a lot of effort and helpers, but the helpers are needed elsewhere more urgently, so it was understandable, even if the teams have not yet arrived in full, that the cancellation was made in time.

I think it is the right decision.

~snip~

It is really sad to hear about this but I also agree that it is the right decision. There is flooding in the region and it looks like it will take them a long time to prepare the track for the race. Besides even if they deal with the current problems there it is said that there is still a risk of downpours in the region later.

The Imola GP can still take place later in the season but now we are just going to continue with the Monaco GP which is in a week also. We even have two weeks full of race weekends ahead of us. Right after Monaco we are going to Spain. Hopefully we don't get such news from Monaco also thinking of a race under heavy rain there recently.

In a season that Red Bull dominates heavily I think only rain can make us watch more entertaining races.

From now on in case you make your predictions before 1st practice session the prize can be 2mbtc. Making predictions before seeing the last condition of teams is making things more complicated but exciting as well.

Looks like we're going to have a rainy one this weekend Grin

Ah good...  Could make for an interesting race.  And Verstappen drives well under wet conditions and so does Alonso and somewhat Hamilton.  I guess we see these three on the podium come Sunday?  Grin

I just hope they don't postpone it, it's a really nasty situation rn in Emilia-Romagna.  Sad

Ooh, another race and another prediction contest. I'm probably going to play it safe with the pool predictions, but for the freebet picks, I'm taking Perez on for a win, even if Verstappen will take pole, I'll even give him the fastest lap.

Rain, no rain, all the drivers seem able to take it on well, Googling tells me Hamilton is the best in wet conditions -- biggest percentage of his wins have come in rain, but I suspect it's going to be car/tyre that has the final say (as usual).

Thanks for the next chance to win, Imola is very hard to judge, it's very hard to overtake, last year RedBull were dominant, Ferrari were second and fourth on the grid but can they repeat, so far I've overestimated Ferrari and Ferrari have been consistently disappointing, maybe they can turn it around and I'm going to guess about unconventionally at your freebet.

And I guess there's a higher chance for Alonso to get the fastest lap than what the line suggest..?  He's lined at 8 for fastest lap rn.  What do you guys think?

It really looks like we are going to have a rainy race weekend this time. There was a probability for the Miami GP as well but it dried up earlier. This time I wonder if we can see a race under rain. Rain can make races much more interesting most of the time. Just remember the Singapore GP last season. Verstappen had really big struggles despite dominating the season normally.

Maybe he can have problems in this race as well which can make the race more competitive than we expect. Perez might see a big opportunity to win another race in that case.

Nice to hear that, because we need it, Imola can be really boring circuit without some chaos, in this case rain can make the chaos part.

Lets see for how much RedBull wins again sadly.

We can only see a good fight for the third spot between Alonso aginst Ferrari and Mercedes drivers.
