The Emilia Romagna Grand Prix (Italian: Gran Premio dell'Emilia Romagna) is a Formula One motor racing event held at the Autodromo Internazionale Enzo e Dino Ferrari, often shortened to "Imola" after the town where it is located.[1] The Imola circuit previously hosted the Italian Grand Prix in 1980, and the San Marino Grand Prix from 1981 to 2006.
History[]
2020[]
The COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 led to disruption of the originally scheduled race calendar, with a number of races cancelled. The Emilia Romagna Grand Prix was added to the revised calendar intended as a "one-off" race, as one of several new or returning Grands Prix, in order to make up for the loss of other races. The event used a one-off, two-day weekend format, with one practice session, on Saturday, rather than the usual three.[2][3] Mercedes's Valtteri Bottas qualified on pole, with teammate Lewis Hamilton winning the race.[4]
2021[]
Despite originally being intended to be held as a one-off event in 2020, due to the ongoing nature of the COVID-19 pandemic the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix returned in 2021 on 18 April, replacing the postponed Chinese Grand Prix as the second round of the 2021 season.[5][6] Lewis Hamilton took pole with Max Verstappen winning a dramatic, rain affected race. [7]
2022[]
The Emilia Romagna Grand Prix is provisionally scheduled to be held for a third consecutive year as part of the 2022 Formula One World Championship.[8]
