About the circuit

The San Marino Grand Prix

The circuit at Imola, in the Italian region of Emilia-Romagna, is named after Enzo Ferrari and his son Dino. It hosted the Italian Grand Prix in 1980 and the San Marino Grand Prix from 1981 to 2006. In 1982 Didier Pironi passed his team-mate Gilles Villeneuve on the last lap, against the team’s agreement; two weeks later Villeneuve was killed in qualifying at Zolder.

1994

The 1994 San Marino Grand Prix weekend was one of the most tragic in Formula 1 history: Roland Ratzenberger was killed in qualifying, and Ayrton Senna in the race, crashing at Tamburello. Afterwards Tamburello and the nearby Villeneuve corner were turned into chicanes. In 2020 Imola returned to the calendar with the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix; in 2023 the race was cancelled because of flooding. Michael Schumacher has won here more often than anyone else.
