How to watch the F1 Emilia Romagna Grand Prix: Live stream for free
Red Bull have won each of the first five grands prix of the season but, at Imola this weekend, there have a reason to look over their shoulder.
Mercedes will be bringing their first significant developments of 2023 to their problematic W14.
That upgrade surely won't have Lewis Hamilton directly fighting Max Verstappen overnight, but it could be a huge step in the right direction to restore competitiveness.
And how might it affect the Aston Martins? Fernando Alonso has enjoyed a better start to 2023 than his old rival Hamilton but that might be under siege from Imola onwards.
