P1racenews AI automatic summary:
Why Imola could bring “more chaos” to the WEC
“There is a widespread expectation that Imola’s tight and undulating nature may lead to incidents compared to the open, flowing Losail International Circuit. Imola, hosting Italy’s WEC round for 2024, features tall kerbs favoring GT3 cars over Hypercars due to its slow corners. Cornering speeds are more evenly matched between classes at Imola, where overtaking is difficult due to the narrow track and penalizing grass/gravel beds. Drivers anticipate more contact and emphasize mutual respect between GT and Hypercars. Risk management will be crucial at Imola, with rain adding to the challenge of the tight circuit layout.”
