The first session is over evidence free in Imola it's time to prepare the lineup for Fanta F1. Last race weekend gave us an unpredictable ending with the first victory of Lando Norris. Imola doesn't want to be outdone, just like Ferrari called to redemption in front of their fans. The traditional weekend allows us to evaluate the teams in several sessions, but the unexpected on old school circuits like Imola is always around the corner. So let's see who to line up during the Imola GP weekend with Fanta F1 advice to try to win the fantastic prizes of the NOW Community Club!
Ferrari plays at home, Red Bull seeks redemption
It may seem strange but in Imola it is not just Ferrari that is called into question when it comes to redemption. In fact, in Miami the big defeat was Red Bull. The Austrian team was unable to find the usual perfection, opening the doors to another team, McLaren who with cunning and a good dose of luck took their first victory of the season. To find out if it was just a coincidence or a leap in quality due to the updates brought to Miami we will have to wait until the end of this weekend.
Where other answers will also come about Ferrari and Red Bull. The Maranello team seems to have everything under control at the moment, Red Bull a little less. A script that we have often seen in the past. However, the results have changed since then. In 2023 Red Bull saw one of the most overwhelming dominations in the history of Formula 1. Shattering record after record and leaving only 1 victory out of 22 races to its opponents.
Maybe it's because after three years now some teams seem to have understood the direction in which to go, it may be because Red Bull is making more mistakes than usual in trying to reach an even higher level, but this year the situation seems to be more unpredictable. In Imola the Fantamanagers are therefore asked to choose once again between head and heart. A choice that could still pay off as has happened in recent weekends. In fact, on two occasions, the top 5 with 100 credits included a mixed team, taking advantage of the highest moments of Ferrari and McLaren. Among the home teams there is also Racing Bulls, particularly in form in this first phase of the weekend. An unknown is Nico Hulkenberg, who despite his experience in F1 has never raced at Imola.
However, we will have to keep the weather at hand and hope that the situation does not change between Saturday and Sunday, because the rain could change the cards on the table. So let's see which lineup to deploy at Fanta F1 for the Imola weekend with a budget of 100 credits:
LECLERC – SAINZ – TSUNODA – SARGEANT – ZHOU
