This year, they are also having to pay a 'hosting fee' - equivalent to 10 million Euros. This fee has been raised via contributions from Emilia-Romagna, its 23 surrounding municipalities and the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, hence the ‘Made in Italy’ prefix to the race title which is designed to increase interest in Italian products.

I thought it might be something like that. It would be great if Imola permanently replaced the Chinese GP. However with a €10 million hosting fee and F1 needing to fill the calendar, one might think it should be F1 paying Imola. Are spectators allowed to attend?
