The 1979 Dino Ferrari Grand Prix was a non-championship Formula One motor race held at the Autodromo Dino Ferrari on September 16, 1979. The event was held to practice a Formula One race at the circuit, that was supposed to hold the Italian Grand Prix every two years in turn with Monza. The 1980 Italian Grand Prix was indeed held at the Imola circuit, but the race returned permanently to Monza in 1981. The Imola circuit was given its own race from 1981-2006, the San Marino Grand Prix.

Famous quotes containing the word grand:
“One of my playmates, who was apprenticed to a printer, and was somewhat of a wag, asked his master one afternoon if he might go a-fishing, and his master consented. He was gone three months. When he came back, he said that he had been to the Grand Banks, and went to setting type again as if only an afternoon had intervened.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
