There'd be two issues with that: First, Imola was the answer to question #1; secondly, this track is located outside Europe...
Sorry . I did say that I didn't think it was right but it did fit two of the clues. It wasn't even a guess. If you read it I said I WAS thinking and then later BUT.

I ain't blaming you or anything... Was just a reminder
