EMILIA-ROMAGNA GRAND PRIX
ENZO E DINO FERRARI CIRCUIT - IMOLA
Emilia-Romagna GP: All you need to know
The Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix is the fifth round of the 2022 Formula 1 World Championship. It is held at the Imola circuit and for us it’s the most home grand prix possible! Imola returned to F1 in 2020 after the Covid-19 pandemic led to a complete re-jig of the calendar.
For 26 years in a row, the Enzo e Dino Ferrari circuit hosted the San Marino Grand Prix, a regular fixture on the championship calendar from 1981 to 2006. In 1980 Imola hosted the Italian Grand Prix. The circuit has been completely renovated to meet the F1 safety standards, which means it can once again host the circus.

Long tradition
There was a period of 26 consecutive years during which Imola hosted the San Marino Grand Prix. The most successful driver in that time was Michael Schumacher with seven wins, including the last race to go by that name back in 2006. Since 2020, the circuit has again featured on the Formula 1 World Championship calendar, hosting the Emilia-Romagna GP. So, having hosted two races, one at Imola in the spring and the other at Monza in early September, the tradition is now being repeated with the return of Imola and the Emilia-Romagna GP.
Motor valley
Formula 1’s return to Imola is the icing on the cake for Italy’s Motor Valley which now hosts an F1 GP, a round of MotoGP and one for World Superbikes, proving that the Emilia-Romagna region really loves motorised sport.
