Autodromo di Bologna
Description At the end of 1963 two firms such as Benelli (motorbikes) and Weber (carburettors) proposed a permanent track close to Bologna and that could have been used even for tests of their own products. In fact Imola and Modena (and of course even Monza were far and inconvenient and they both had problems that limited possibility to use them. This proposal was never developed
