The San Marino Grand Prix was held at the Autodromo Enzo e Dino Ferrari in Imola, Italy, because San Marino itself was too small to host a Formula One track. The race was named after the republic to allow Italy to host two Grands Prix in a single season, alongside the Italian Grand Prix at Monza.

Before 2002, San Marino used the Sammarinese lira, which was pegged at equal value to the Italian lira. Italian coins and banknotes were also legal tender in the republic, and vice versa. Today, San Marino's euro coins are highly prized by collectors worldwide due to their limited mintage.

San Marino is landlocked and shares its 39-kilometer border exclusively with Italy. Specifically, it is nestled between the regions of Emilia-Romagna to the north and east, and Marche to the south and west. This strategic location on the slopes of the Apennines has historically helped protect its independence.
