After a three-week mini-hiatus, Formula 1 returns to action this weekend, with Italy hosting the Imola Grand Prix from the 16th to 18th April. The track was a huge success last year, with Formula One returning to the track which previously hosted the San Marino GP, last held in 2006. Lewis Hamilton won the race and both the Alfa Romeo’s finished in the points last year, with Daniel Ricciardo recording his first Formula 1 podium with Renault (now known as Alpine).
