Imola Grand Prix 2023 Seating Plan

1/5

Grandstand 1

At the turn 1 entry into Tamburello, Grandstand 1 is situated exactly next to Grandstand A. With an open stand and a sizable screen directly across from your seats, you can see the weekend activities. As this stand is closer to the ground than its neighbors I, M, and A, the view may be partially hampered by fencing.

What to Expect:

• Fence right up in your face so not the best view of the circuit

• Very close to the track, though, so exhilarating experience nonetheless

Which Grandstand Should You Go For?

1. For an Awesome View of the First Lap

Grandstand M: The top qualifiers can be spied on from one end of Grandstand M. This grandstand is great for watching the start and finish of the race, as well as pitstop action. It's one of the best spots for those who want to witness the two most dramatic points of the race.

2. For the Best Overtaking Spot

Grandstand R: After successfully navigating the preceding chicane, a driver may attempt to overtake their opponent on the slope leading to the first apex of Rivazza. Truly a place to witness some buzzing overtaking action at the Imola GP!

3. For a Budget Buy

General Admission: Apparently the cheapest (or at least, one of) tickets being offered on the entire 2023 F1 calendar, the General Admission at Imola does not compromise on viewing quality in the least. Excellent views and proximity to the fun fanzone? There's few reasons to refuse!

4. For the Best View of the Final Stretch

Grandstand A: These are widely considered to be some of the best seats to witness not just the drivers putting in their all during the final laps of the race, but also the illustrious winner being awarded the flag once the race has ended.

For a Hair's Breadth Distance from the Track

Grandstand B: Not only does this grandstand promise a thrillingly close distance from the circuit as the cars zoom by, but it also has a high chance of seeing overtakes. Coupled with some amazing and clear views, this is the place to be to be close to the circuit.

5. For the Picture-Perfect Shot

Grandstand D & E: These small grandstands are an amazing choice for the aspiring Formula 1 photographer. Clear, unobstructed views and short distance from the track promise some swoonworthy shots for sure!

It is quick, fluid, and has a decent range of elevation. There is usually little margin for error because of its roots and position, which is literally in the middle of a city.

Fans have always cheered when Formula 1 racing takes place on the renowned tarmac of the legendary Imola track. Since its return to the Formula 1 calendar in 2020, fans have come to see Lewis Hamilton (2020) and Max Verstappen (2021 and 2022) stand on the top step of the podium at the high-speed Autodromo Internazionale Enzo E Dino Ferrari.

The 2021 Imola GP saw the drivers begin the race on intermediate tyres due to heavy rain. We all remember when Alonso hit the wall on the way to the grid and had to quickly change his front wing before starting. As of May 17, 2023, the Imola GP 2023 stands cancelled due to flooding.

One significant advantage of getting to the race early is finding a better parking spot. By arriving early, you can avoid the crowds and secure a more convenient parking location. It also means that you can secure a better spot to watch the race!

If you're in General Admission, it is absolutely crucial to scope out where you're going to view the race from, on Friday. Choosing the optimal spot to view the Imola GP race from will provide you with a better view of the action. Also, certain viewing spots offer a unique atmosphere and provide a more engaging experience.

Staying after the race allows fans to soak up the atmosphere and excitement of the event. The racetrack is usually buzzing with excitement and energy as fans celebrate the race with each other. It can also provide opportunities for fans to meet their favorite drivers and team members. And of course, you're avoiding a whole bunch of annoying traffic on the way back since the whole trackside will also be heading back at the same time.

Unforgettable Imola GP Moments

How the Prost vs Senna Rivalry Came to Be

On race day at Imola GP in 1989, Senna took the lead from Prost and was leading the race comfortably until lap 47 when Prost made a move to overtake him on the chicane. The two cars collided, with Senna's car hitting the barrier and ending his race. Prost went on to win the race, leaving Senna angry and frustrated. The incident, as we know, sparked a bitter feud between the two drivers that lasted for years.

Alonso's Triumph Over Schumacher

In the 2005 Imola Grand Prix, Fernando Alonso pulled off a stunning victory over Michael Schumacher, who was then the reigning Formula 1 champion and one of the most successful drivers in the sport's history. It marked Alonso's first win at Imola and helped him claim his second World Championship title later that year.

Hakkinen's Unexpected Failure

Finnish driver Mika Hakkinen, who was the defending World Champion at the San Marino GP in 1999, was expected to win the race after securing pole position in the qualifying session. However, the race didn't go as planned for Hakkinen, who had to stop for an unscheduled pit stop because of an unexpected tyre puncture.

Ferrari's Almost-Dominance

In 1996, Schumacher experienced a devastating loss at the Imola race in Italy. During the race, Schumacher's car suffered from a technical brake disc explosion and he was forced to retire from the race. This disappointment came after a string of victories and successes for Schumacher, and it was a major blow to his confidence.
