Piastri Leads McLaren One-Two in Imola Practice

On May 16, 2025, Oscar Piastri led McLaren to a one-two finish in both practice sessions at the Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix at Imola.
McLaren's dominance followed Piastri's championship lead after six races and his recent four wins in the last five events.
The first practice session ended early due to a crash by Brazilian rookie Gabriel Bortoleto, while a late off by Isack Hadjar caused a red flag in the second session.
Piastri set a best lap of 1:15.293, edging teammate Lando Norris by 0.025 seconds, as Ferrari drivers reported brake issues and Max Verstappen said, "It feels like I'm drifting everywhere."
McLaren maintained its early 2025 advantage, staying comfortably ahead of rivals amid Imola's historical significance and uncertainty about its future on the F1 calendar.
