The6 Hours of Imola is anendurance race forsports cars, held at theAutodromo Enzo e Dino Ferrari inImola, Italy.
The race was first held as the fourth round of the2011 Intercontinental Le Mans Cup and the third round of the2011 Le Mans Series.[1] The circuit was dropped from the newly foundedFIA World Endurance Championship andEuropean Le Mans Series calendar in 2012. In 2013, the circuit returned to the2013 European Le Mans Series calendar, however the race was held for3 hours.
With the announcement of2024 FIA World Endurance Championship calendar on 9 June 2023 at theAutomobile Club de l'Ouest press conference, the race was revived again by replacing the6 Hours of Monza.[2] The Italian round of the World Endurance Championship,6 Hours of Monza had been held atMonza in July between 2021 and 2023. However, to accommodate an extra non-European round of the championship the Italian race needed to be moved from July to April; with Monza undergoing upgrade works in April, the circuit was unable to host the race, so the Italian round was shifted to Imola instead of Monza.[3] Despite the fact that the race was originally intended as a one-off race, it was announced on 14 June 2024 that Imola will continue to hostFIA World Endurance Championship races until 2028 after signing an 4-year contract extension.[4]
