Horner warns: "On a day like today, there is a lot of risk"

With rain predicted during the Imola Grand Prix, there are many opportunities for Max Verstappen. The drivers will start on intermediates, but the track is predicted to dry out quickly. Christian Horner emphasizes the risk present in these difficult conditions.

The pressure is on for Charles Leclerc. With the lead in the championship and Ferrari's home race in Imola, much is expected from the Monegasque. Leclerc will have to attack Verstappen from P2, but will also have to take into account Sergio Perez on P3.

Verstappen is well behind Leclerc in the driver's championship, so the Dutchman will be only too happy to take advantage of the rain. A mistake is quickly made in tricky conditions, so there is a lot of risk.

"On a day like today, there is a lot of risk. It looks like it will dry out quite quickly but there is another band of rain coming. It will be about going with the track and staying ahead of the Ferrari", Horner says to Sky Sports.
