The heavy downpour that affected Emilia Romagna led Formula 1 and the race organizers to the reasonable decision to cancel the Imola race weekend. The intense rainfall also affected the Enzo and Dino Ferrari Circuit in Imola: a drone video shows an aerial view of the circuit on the Santerno River after the flood.

There have been tumultuous days in Emilia Romagna, with heavy rains causing significant disruptions and flooding. The flood prompted Formula 1 and local authorities to cancel the Imola Grand Prix, scheduled for the upcoming weekend, as the sport rightfully took a back seat, with focus solely on the rescue efforts for the affected populations.

The protagonists of the Formula 1 World Championship have shown their support for the people affected by the tragic events of recent hours. Messages of solidarity have been expressed by the drivers, including Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz, and even Formula 1 itself, which, in the official statement regarding the event’s cancellation, stood in solidarity with the Emilia Romagna region.

Stefano Domenicali, the head of the racing series and a native of Imola, also extended his support to the Emilia Romagna region.

In the evening, a drone video has surfaced, showcasing the delicate conditions of the Imola circuit and the surrounding areas after the recent flood. The impressive aerial footage reveals a flooded paddock and a swollen Santerno River.
