About Autodromo Enzo e Dino Ferrari
The Autodromo Enzo e Dino Ferrari, commonly known as Imola, is a historic racing circuit located in Imola, Italy. Named after Enzo Ferrari and his son Dino, the track has hosted numerous prestigious motorsport events, including Formula 1, MotoGP, and the World Endurance Championship. Unlike most modern circuits, Imola runs in a counterclockwise direction, adding a unique challenge for drivers. It is famously associated with Scuderia Ferrari and holds a special place in F1 history, being the site of the San Marino Grand Prix for many years. Sadly, it is also remembered as the track where Ayrton Senna and Roland Ratzenberger lost their lives during the tragic 1994 Formula 1 weekend.
