Formula 1 returns to Imola this weekend for possibly the final time the series races at the famous Emilia-Romagna circuit. Imola’s contract is due to expire at the end of this year, sparking debates on whether it should be extended. The old school track first appeared in F1 in 1980 and stayed for 25 years as the San Marino GP. Imola returned in 2020 and has remained since, but debates arise due to limited overtaking opportunities for modern, bigger cars. Some argue Imola should make way for more overtaking-friendly tracks to enhance the entertainment value for fans. Classic circuits like Imola are cherished by drivers but may not offer the best racing experience for fans, favoring more overtaking-friendly tracks like Bahrain, according to some opinions.
