The track returned to the calendar in 2020, for the first time since 2006, as Formula One sought to fill gaps left by other races cancelling due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
It retained its place in the 2021 and 2022 world championships.
Italy has two races, with Monza hosting the Italian Grand Prix and Imola’s round now named after the surrounding Emilia-Romagna region.
Formula 1 – F1 to race in Imola until 2025: “I am delighted that we will be continuing our excellent partnership with Imola for the Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix until 2025,” Formula One chief executive Stefano Domenicali, who was born and grew up in Imola, said in a statement.
