Formula 1 returns to Imola this weekend for what may be the final race at the iconic Emilia-Romagna circuit. Imola’s contract is set to expire this year, sparking discussions on its future in F1. The track made its F1 debut in 1980, initially replacing Monza for the Italian Grand Prix. Imola then hosted the San Marino Grand Prix until 2006, returning temporarily in 2020 due to the pandemic. Debates continue on whether Imola fits the modern F1 era with limited overtaking opportunities and tight corners. The question remains: should Imola remain on the calendar post-2021 or will its absence be noticeable?
