Imola Grand Prix qualifying DELAYED after official FIA announcement
Saturday’s qualifying for the 2025 Imola Grand Prix was initially delayed by an official announcement from the FIA, pausing the session for the Emilia-Romagna race. The delay was extended after questions arose from the decisions made during Q1, leading to a further pause before resuming at 16:46 local time. Haas F1 driver Ollie Bearman had his lap time wiped out after a red flag caused by Franco Colapinto’s crash, impacting his progression to Q2. Red Bull’s Yuki Tsunoda also faced a major crash in Q1, causing a second red flag and delaying proceedings. Bearman was ultimately knocked out of qualifying in P19 after a controversial decision regarding his Q2 entry, leaving both drivers and fans frustrated with the chaotic turn of events at Imola.
