1996 Formula One Indoor Trophy

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The 1996 Formula One Indoor Trophy took place on December 7–8 at the Bologna Motor Show. The winner was Giancarlo Fisichella in a Benetton-Renault. The 1996 running of the event was the last non-championship Formula One event of any kind, as the event switched to Formula 3000 cars for the next year's running.
