It is located in Fiorano Modenese, near the Italian town of Maranello. Construction began in 1971 and the circuit officially opened on 8 April 1972. It was originally 8.4 metres wide and 3,000 metres long. In 1992, a chicane was added making it 3,021 metres long, and in 1996 a fast bend replaced a sharp corner at the end of the pit straight, which shortened the length by 24 metres. Fiorano has a wide range of corner types, with corner diameters between 370 and 13.71 metres. Thus Ferrari is able to simulate corner and track types of other Grand Prix circuits. As with Suzuka, it is a figure-of-eight course.
