Ferrari Back At Imola As F1 Eyes SHOCK Finale Switch?! | F1 News

Video summary

F1 News today as Ferrari return to Imola with Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc, completing a major Pirelli 2027 tyre test at a circuit that could suddenly become hugely important to the end of the 2026 Formula 1 season. Hamilton completed 64 laps in the SF-26, with Leclerc adding another 63 as Ferrari logged 127 laps in total. But the bigger question is why Imola is suddenly back in the spotlight. Formula 1 has confirmed that, if Qatar and Abu Dhabi cannot go ahead, the 2026 season could finish in Europe — and Imola is one of the venues under consideration. 👉 Subscribe to F1 Grandstand: https://www.youtube.com/@F1Grandstand?sub_confirmation=1 🔴 FERRARI BACK AT IMOLA Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc were both back on track for Ferrari as the team completed a Pirelli tyre test ahead of 2027. Hamilton ran 64 laps and Leclerc 63, giving Ferrari valuable mileage around one of Formula 1’s most iconic circuits. The timing is fascinating. Imola could yet return to the 2026 F1 calendar in a completely unexpected role if the final races in Qatar and Abu Dhabi cannot take place. Nothing is confirmed, but a Ferrari home finale at Imola would be an extraordinary way to end the season. 🚨 F1 GOES ALL-IN ON SPRINTS Formula 1 has confirmed a record 10 Sprint weekends for 2027, up from six in 2026. Monaco gets a Sprint for the first time, alongside Bahrain, Australia, Japan and Abu Dhabi, while Portugal and Türkiye also return to the F1 calendar. 🔥 VERSTAPPEN ERUPTS OVER HAMILTON ORDER Max Verstappen was furious after Red Bull told him to give positions back following his Turn 1 battle with Lewis Hamilton in Madrid. Verstappen argued Hamilton had almost hit him, but Red Bull chose to avoid the risk of a penalty. Max later blasted the situation as “mickey-mouse racing”. 🟠 LAWSON SAVED BY RED BULL PLAN?! A report says Nikola Tsolov could spend 2027 as a Racing Bulls reserve while racing in Japanese Super Formula instead of immediately taking an F1 seat. Could that help Liam Lawson keep his Racing Bulls drive for another season? 💰 HAAS CHASING BIGGER 2027 BUDGET Ayao Komatsu says Haas are making positive progress in talks with prospective partners as the team tries to move spending closer to F1’s $215m cost cap. BWT has been linked, although no deal has been announced. 👇 JOIN THE DEBATE Would you want Ferrari finishing the season at Imola? Could an Imola finale give Hamilton or Leclerc one last huge home-race moment? Are 10 Sprint weekends too many? Was Verstappen right to rage over the Hamilton order? Should Racing Bulls keep Lawson for 2027? 00:00 🚨 F1 NEWS — FERRARI BACK AT IMOLA?! 02:23 🔴 FERRARI IMOLA RETURN — SHOCK FINALE INCOMING?! 07:40 🚨 F1 GOES ALL-IN — 10 SPRINTS & MONACO MADNESS?! 18:15 🔥 VERSTAPPEN RADIO EXPOSED — “IT’S STUPID!” 27:08 🏎 MAX VS 100 — VERSTAPPEN DESTROYS THE FIELD! 30:49 🟠 LAWSON SAVED?! — RED BULL’S TSOLOV PLAN 40:55 💰 HAAS CHASE BIG MONEY — BUDGET CAP PUSH! 👍 SMASH LIKE if you enjoyed tonight’s show and SUBSCRIBE for daily F1 News, Formula 1 News, F1 Live and F1 2026 coverage. 🏁 Come for the vibe.
