Charles Leclerc topped both practice sessions for the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix. Leclerc was running Ferrari's new upgrades on Friday at Imola, and showed great pace on track.
His 1m15.906s put him nearly 0.2s clear of Oscar Piastri at the top of the timesheets. Things could have looked different had it not been for Lando Norris' mistake at the final corner - he was on course to challenge Leclerc for top spot.
Yuki Tsunoda enjoyed a strong day for RB, ending FP2 0.3s off the pace in third ahead of the two Mercedes drivers. On the other hand, Red Bull endured a tough afternoon, with Max Verstappen especially.
Verstappen ran into the gravel tap on a number of occasions, complaining about the handling of his car.
