Kada Sárközi joined GPblog as an editor ahead of the 2023 Formula 1 season. He graduated with a BA in Sports Journalism in the UK and has covered Grands Prix and other F1 events live.
The seventh round of the 2024 Formula 1 season will take place at Imola, under the name Emilia Romagna Grand Prix (older F1 fans remember the race at Imola being called the San Marino Grand Prix). After two sprint weekends in China and Miami respectively, F1 will now return to their regular schedule. The 2024 Emilia Romagna Grand Prix will start at 14:00 UK time.
The first European race of the season is just around the corner, as after waking up early for the Grands Prix during three races in Eastern Asia and then staying up late for the Miami Grand Prix, the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix will be the first race held in Europe. Therefore, no calculation is needed: fans just need to sit down in front of their screens at 14:00 UK time.
The rest of the weekend is also business as usual. On Friday, the hour-long FP1 will begin at 12:30, while FP2 will start at 16:00. The final free practice session on the Saturday, FP3 will get underway at 11:30. Qualifying will then begin on Saturday at 15:00.
