The Autodromo Internazionale Enzo e Dino Ferrari, better known as Imola, is a motor racing circuit in the town of Imola, in the Emilia-Romagna region of Italy, east of Bologna. It is one of the few major international circuits to run in an anti-clockwise direction.

The circuit has an FIA Grade One licence. Imola was the venue for the San Marino Grand Prix between 1981 and 2006.
