2023 Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix
cancelled Formula One motor race
The 2023 Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix (officially known as the Formula 1 Qatar Airways Gran Premio del Made in Italy e dell'Emilia-Romagna 2023) was a scheduled Formula One motor race set to be held on 21 May 2023, at the Autodromo Internazionale Enzo e Dino Ferrari in Imola, Italy. On 17 May, Formula One Management announced the cancellation of the race due to sudden floods in the region.
Background
The event was set to be held across the weekend of 19–21 May. It would have been the sixth round of the 2023 Formula One World Championship.
Qualifying format and tyre rule changes
The Grand Prix was set to be the first of two to trial a new qualifying format that mandates specific tyre compounds. During the first segment (Q1), drivers would have used the hard compound, mediums during the second (Q2), and softs during the third (Q3). In addition, teams would have only had 11 sets of tyres for the race weekend rather than 13 as part of an initiative to help the sport become more environmentally friendly.
Championship standings before the race
Max Verstappen led the Drivers' Championship with 119 points, 14 points ahead of his teammate Sergio Pérez in second, and 44 ahead of Fernando Alonso in third. Red Bull Racing, with 224 points, led the Constructors' Championship from Aston Martin and Mercedes, who were second and third with 102 and 96 points, respectively.
As the race was cancelled, these standings would carry over to the following Monaco Grand Prix.
