30 years after the great Brazilian Ayrton Senna tragically died at this very circuit, Verstappen equalled his record of eight consecutive pole positions. That gave him the chance to extend his lead at the top of the Drivers' Championship leaderboard.

Emilia Romagna Grand Prix circuit
The 2024 Emilia Romagna Grand Prix takes place over 63 laps of the 4.909-kilometre Autodromo Internazionale Enzo e Dino Ferrari (a.k.a. the Imola Circuit) near Bologna in Italy.
Formerly the home of the San Marino Grand Prix, Imola will always be indelibly linked to the names of Roland Ratzenberger and F1 great Ayrton Senna who both died at the circuit on the same weekend in 1994.
Despite that tragic connection, Imola was welcomed back heartily when the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix debuted in 2020. It's a harum scarum circuit with some super fast corners that will get the drivers' pulses racing faster than the cars they're driving.
Emilia Romagna Grand Prix FAQ
So, that's how to watch the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix and all the race timings sorted. Now here's an F1 Emilia Romagna FAQ for everything else you want to know about the upcoming race.
What were the 2024 Emilia Romagna G.P. qualifying results?
Max Verstappen put some disappointing (by his standard) days behind him to take his eighth straight pole position at Imola. That matched Ayrton Senna's previous record, with a time of 1:14.746.
McLaren had a great Saturday, with Oscar Piastri recording the second and third best times. Although Piastri will have to start fifth, as he was penalised for a previous incursion.
The Ferraris dominate the second row, with Red Bull's Sergio Perez all the way down in 11th. There was a better mood in the RB-Honda camp, with Yuki Tsunoda and Daniel Ricciardo both making it to Q3 and will start 7th and 9th respectively today.
What are the odds and predictions for the 2024 Emilia Romagna G.P.?
Despite the blip at Miami and underwhelming Friday practice, Max Verstappen is still heavy favorite to win at Imola on Sunday.
Ferrari pair Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sain Jr. are also favored by the bookies, with the in-form Lando Norris expected to do well, too.
What will the weather be like at the 2024 Emilia Romagna Grand Prix?
The weather is generally looking good in San Marino, with the sun beating down on Saturday's qualifying.
There is a little rain forecast to be in the air on Sunday for the race, but it doesn't look like it will fall early or heavily enough to be a significant factor on the result.
When is the next race?
The 2024 Monaco GP follows the Emilia Romagna GP. There's just a one-week gap between races, so the teams head to Monte Carlo for the race on Sunday, May 26.
Who won the 2023 Emilia Romagna Grand Prix?
The 2023 Emilia Romagna Grand Prix was cancelled just a few days before the event due to heavy rainfall and chronic flooding in the area.
Red Bull's Max Verstappen won the 2022 Emilia Romagna GP, finishing with a time of 1:32:07.986.
Another wet weekend at Imola was absolutely dominated by the flying Dutchman, who went fastest in qualifying, won the sprint race and cruised to victory of more than 30 seconds ahead of Charles Leclerc and Sergio Perez having led from start to finish.
What is the lap record at Emilia Romagna Grand Prix?
Lewis Hamilton set the Autodromo Internazionale Enzo e Dino Ferrari lap record in 2020 with a time of 1:15.484.
Emilia Romagna Grand Prix winners
Max Verstappen has finished the weekend at the top of the podium in the last two Emilia Romagna Grand Prix. Lewis Hamilton is the only other winner of the event in its debut year of 2020.
Back when the Imola Circuit played host to the San Marino GP, Michael Schumacher won an incredible seven times. Bitter rivals Alain Prost and Ayrton Senna won three times apiece, before the latter's tragic death at the track in 1994.
