NO GP this weekend in Italy

Post by UHR850 »

The Emilia Romagna Grand Prix this weekend has been cancelled due to adverse weather in the region,
Formula 1 confirmed on Wednesday. The race at Imola, due to be round six of the 2023 F1 season,
will now not take place due to flooding in the area and the risk of further downpours over the coming days.
DOWNTON Mini is what I like a lot.
Collecting 60th wooden steeringwheels.

Can't say I'm surprised. The flooding in northern Italy looks horrendous!

Good decision to cancel the F1. I wonder if the weather will impact IMM at all. Firenze not being a million miles from Imola...
Of course I know what a dipstick is, you get called something often enough you look it up!
