The Emilia Romagna Grand Prix this weekend signifies the possible end of Imola as a grand prix venue, with its contract running out and no space on the 2026 calendar for renewal. The historic 4.909km track has a rich legacy, including the tragic events of the 1994 San Marino Grand Prix where Roland Ratzenberger and Ayrton Senna lost their lives. As opinions on Imola’s departure from F1 vary, it’s important to remember the memorable moments it has provided, such as the classic battle between Michael Schumacher and Fernando Alonso in the 2005 race. Despite its challenging layout for overtaking, the 2005 race showcased thrilling on-track action and marked a symbolic moment between the established champion Schumacher and the rising star Alonso. The race serves as a reminder of Imola’s place in Formula 1 history and its contributions to the sport over the years.
