After an exciting qualifying session in Imola, the starting grid for the Grand Prix of Emilia Romagna can be made. Valtteri Bottas' Mercedes will start from first place on Sunday, followed by his teammate Lewis Hamilton. Max Verstappen completes the top three and will therefore start behind Bottas.
