Imola Circuit ... the Italian town of Imola, 40 km east of Bologna and 80 km east of the Ferrari factory in Maranello. Some are also critical of the circuit's deteriorating facilities, and there had long been talk of the San Marino Grand Prix being taken off the Formula One calendar. In 2007 it will not be on the Formula One calendar. Following an FIA decision in August 2006, Imola will not host a Grand Prix in 2007, as the San Marino race was removed from the calendar.[1] SAGIS, the company that owns the circuit, hoped that the race would be reinstated at the October 2006 meeting of the FIA World Motorsport Council and scheduled for the weekend of April 29, 2007, provided that renovations to the facility are completed in time for the race, but the reinstatement was denied.

His six points punched the blood red car back to the top of the constructors championship, which the boss of the team Jean Todd feels is more important now, yes right mate. It was a very bad weekend in April for Maclaren who seem to be going backwards after an indifferent start in Australia. Coulthard just chugged round in sixth in this very tedious race with drive number two in ... more

This has been a weekend of great champions with two stunning performances in the London Marathon. Arsenal and Chelsea blowing away their lessers and Tiger Woods mastering Augusta as did Shumacher here. The brilliant driver picked up his forth win here for a 14 point lead on Ferraris other home track and has begun to stretch the lead in his brand new car. It was a record number of drives in any scarlet car over the companys prestigious history befitting to the best flyer they have ever had. Barrichellos second under orders, who was clearly the faster guy at the weekend, and had his car commandeered from him by the world champion after the Brazilians exciting ...

The Autodromo Enzo e Dino Ferrari to give Imola it's official name is located in the tiny principality of San Marino in the north east of Italy. To be fair this really is the second Italian Grand Prix of the season, the main event being hosted at Monza. So the tifosi (Ferrari fans) are even more in evidence here than at the other races and Ferrari always try especially hard at the venue. The track itself has been sanitised in the name of safety since the tragedy of 1994 when two drivers were killed. Ayrton Senna died when his car left the track at the 170mph Tamburello corner and ploughed into an armco barrier. Roland Ratzenburger died ...

As always with my F1 opinions I’ll be identifying three drivers that are heroes and three that are villains as well as a hero team and a villain team. I’ll also be giving my general opinion on the race itself. * The Results – Mixed Fortunes for most people* It was a day of mixed fortunes for most of the teams as few of them brought both cars home. Engine failure was a popular way to go out of the race, certainly more than there has been so far this season yet this wasn’t the first track to push the engines, Brazil has it’s ‘pedal meet floor’ moments. Coincidence? Probably. But what’s this, a non ...
