Sweden is not necessarily a hotbed for circuit-based racing, but the country has hosted a Formula One Grand Prix in the past: From 1973 to 1978, the series raced at Anderstorp as a result of the increasing popularity of Ronnie Peterson. Just under 100 kilometers to the Southwest of the former Grand Prix venue, the much smaller Falkenbergs Motorbana is located.

This sub-2km circuit is Sweden's fastest race track and only got its turn one chicane in 2004 to slow cars down - the rest of the quick lap remains in its original configuration, including banked corners and quite steep elevation changes for such a short track. In the blink of an eye, the lap is over - and the wild ride begins again.
Touring cars and low-powered Formula vehicles are right at home at Falkenberg, GT1 and GT2 cars have raced there in the past as well, which make a lap at the track a ride on razor's edge, but highly exciting.
