After an absence of 14 years and a first Grand Prix in November 2020, Formula 1 is back in Imola. With 22 corners and a very short straight line (358m), the circuit is very technical and requires intense engine braking.<\/p>\n
It is no coincidence that Enzo Ferrari called the circuit which bears his name and that of his son Dino a “little N\u00fcrburgring.”<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The areas where braking is most important precede turns 2, 14, and 17 with high entry speeds. The constraints on the brakes are heavy, with the pace being consistent on the Italian track.<\/p>\n
It is worth noting that following Ayrton Senna’s accident in 1994, chicanes 2 and 14 (Tamburello and Variante Alta) were added to limit speed.<\/p>\n
All details on the physical constraints are determined by Brembo below:<\/p>\n
