FERRIS WHEEL TO ADMIRE THE CIRCUIT
Rome, April 19. The fans who will attend the Qatar Airways GP of Made in Italy and Emilia-Romagna – which will take place at the “Enzo e Dino Ferrari” International Circuit in Imola, on 19/21 May – will be able to experience behind the scenes of the world of Formula1, at the Fanzone Activation Imola 2023, set up behind the grandstands located on the starting straight.
Fanzone: open every day
The Fanzone will be open every day, free of charge, for those in possession of the GP ticket. Extraordinary prologue with free admission for citizens Thursday 18, from 1 pm. Enthusiasts will be able to admire, among other things, the extraordinary scenery of the “Enzo and Dino Ferrari” International Circuit and the Grand Prix paddock, offered by a Ferris wheel 32 meters high.
The thrill of the wind tunnel
How does a wind tunnel work, a fundamental tool in designing a Formula 1 single-seater? To find out, just enter the F1 Blast Lane, and let yourself be “run over” by the flow of air to which the models are subjected. A camera will capture the image of the face upon impact with the wind speed. The Driver Delta area, on the other hand, shows the F1 careers of all 20 drivers, while fans pass through a tunnel in which the screens reproduce the key moments of their GP adventure, in the time it takes to complete a lap.
F1-Esports: behind the wheel of virtual single-seaters to demonstrate your talent
One of the Fanzone’s most popular activities is evolving: F1 Esports, where enthusiasts can try their hand at the wheel of virtual single-seaters: a platform will inform the public about competitions, prizes up for grabs and appearances. During the live events, fans will be involved in the comments through led screens.
Pit stop: which is the fastest team to change tires?
One of the pillars of the Fanzone Activation is undoubtedly the simulation of a pit stop. In the late afternoon, the fastest teams will be called to the final and the winners will be awarded prizes and signed products of official merchandise.
4D show to experience all the power of an F1
An electrifying 4D experience, centered around an F1 showcar. It will last 10 minutes and will only be repeated a few times during the day. Objective: to make enthusiasts experience the charm of the power of an F.1, between roaring engines and air cannons.
Experience the thrill of getting on the podium
The podium is undoubtedly one of the most iconic moments of modern Formula 1: in the Fanzone Activation of Imola 2023, enthusiasts will be able to experience the emotions of the winners of a GP, wearing the Pirelli cap and lifting the bottles of Ferrari Trento, while a DJ station will recreate the climate that is experienced in the moments of the celebration.
Photo with the World Champion trophy
In the Fanzone there will also be the trophy that is awarded to the F.1 world champion and it will therefore be possible to admire it up close and take pictures.
Towards a zero emission future
What will the Formula of the future be like? You can find out at the Fanzone Activation, with a journey through time that has Net Zero 2030 as its destination, i.e. the reduction of emissions by that date. A video will reveal how F.1 intends to proceed along the path of sustainability. Enthusiasts will then be provided with the necessary material to design their ideal F.1.
Meanwhile, the hunt for the ticket continues. To increase the availability of seats and meet the needs of fans and enthusiasts, the “Enzo e Dino Ferrari” racetrack has created six new grandstands at the Villeneuve, Tosa, Gresini, Acque Minerali bends, and in the starting area in front of the pits. Tickets can be purchased on the ticketone.it website and on www.autodromoimola.it
