'''Anderstorp Raceway''', previously known as '''Scandinavian Raceway''', is a {{convert|4.025|km|mi|abbr=on}} [[motorsport]] [[race track]] in [[Anderstorp]] ([[Gislaved Municipality]]), [[Sweden]] and the sole Nordic host of a [[Formula One]] World Championship Grand Prix, when the [[Swedish Grand Prix]] was held for six years between 1973 and 1978.

==Track history==
The track was built on [[marshlands]] in 1968 and became an extremely popular venue in the 1970s, just as Swede [[Ronnie Peterson]] was at the height of his career. It has a long straight (called ''Flight Straight'', which is also used as an aircraft runway), as well as several banked corners, making car setup an engineering compromise. Unusually, the pit lane is located halfway round the lap.

The raceway hosted six [[Formula One]] [[Swedish Grand Prix]] events in the 1970s.  When Peterson and [[Gunnar Nilsson]] died during the [[1978 Formula One season]], public support for the event dried up and the Swedish Grand Prix came to an end. The circuit is also noteworthy because it was the site of the first and only win of two unconventional F1 cars: the six-wheeled [[Tyrrell P34]] car in 1976 and the infamous [[Brabham BT46B|Brabham 'fan car']] in 1978.

Anderstorp also hosted the [[Swedish motorcycle Grand Prix]] in 1971–1977 and 1981–1990, the [[European Touring Car Championship]] in 1985–1987, the [[Superbike World Championship]] in 1991 and 1993, and the [[FIA GT Championship]] in 2002 and 2003. 

In 1993, the circuit along with FIM organized a 24-hour motorcycle race. Just one week ahead of the race, an appeal was lodged against the permit for the competition, due to noise concerns. Although the organizers obtained permission to race on the morning of the event, "media had trumpeted that the competition was canceled. At the ferry berths in Skåne, passport staff turned away visitors from Denmark and the continent". During the race itself a heavy thunderstorm occurred, with torrential rain drowning the circuit. Although racing continued, no local or international audience showed up, and the circuit was forced to declare bankruptcy after the event.<ref>{{Cite web |title=1991–95 SRWanderstorp|url=https://www.srwanderstorp.se/sv/arc/historik/1991-95/|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201024170905/https://www.srwanderstorp.se/sv/arc/historik/1991-95/|website=www.srwanderstorp.se |archive-date=24 October 2020 |access-date=21 July 2021 |url-status=live}}</ref> 

The [[Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile|FIA]] [[World Touring Car Championship|World Touring Car Championship (WTCC)]] returned to Anderstorp in 2007, replacing the [[Istanbul Park]] in [[Turkey]] on the WTCC calendar. For the 2008 season however, it was replaced by the [[Imola Circuit]].

International motorsport was due to return to Anderstorp in [[2020 Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters|2020]] with a round of the [[Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters|DTM]].<ref>{{cite news |last=Errington |first=Tom |title=Sweden joins expanded 2020 DTM schedule |url=https://www.motorsport.com/dtm/news/2020-calendar-announced-anderstorp-hockenheim/4543622/ |publisher=[[Motorsport.com]] |date=19 September 2019 |access-date=13 August 2025}}</ref> Then, it was cancelled due to [[COVID-19 pandemic in Sweden|COVID-19 pandemic]].<ref>{{cite news |title=DTM issue revised ten round calendar across three countries |url=https://www.touringcartimes.com/2020/06/03/dtm-issue-revised-ten-round-calendar-across-three-countries/ |publisher=TouringCarTimes |date=3 June 2020 |access-date=13 August 2025}}</ref>

==Layout modifications==

The circuit has been modified at least 4 times in its history.

In order to get more financiers the long straight was adopted as a {{convert|1000|m|ft|abbr=on}} runway for small aircraft {{airport codes||ESMP}}.

==Notes==
{{note|1|[N 2]}} Contrary to common depiction of the 1978 modification as having a chicane introduced to the Norra corner, there was no chicane ever used: the corner was made slower by decreasing its radius and making it a sharper bend instead of a sweeping curve it was before.<ref>{{youtube|id=uUWI74kaFIM&t=55s}} – on-board camera view</ref><ref>{{youtube|BTFa9mlNJwk}} – 1978 Grand Prix highlights</ref><ref>{{youtube|VYVHa5HBwkU}} – full coverage of the 1978 Grand Prix</ref><ref>{{cite news |language=es |url=http://hemeroteca.mundodeportivo.com/preview/1978/06/15/pagina-21/1032424/pdf.html |title=G.P. Suecia: ¿Andretti o Peterson? |first=Xavier |last=Ventura |date=1978-06-15 |work=El Mundo Deportivo |page=21 |access-date=2017-06-04 |quote=El difícil circuito de Anderstorp conoce este año una serie de cambios que pueden hacerlo más seguro pero también más difícil. La tradicional curva de la recta de salida ha sido modificada para convertirla en un ángulo recto de 90°... que puede tener importancia decisiva para la resolución de la carrera. Así mismo, nuevas barreras han mejorado las condiciones de seguridad del G.P. de Suecia de tal manera que ha recibido ya este circuito su homologación hasta 1981 por parte de la Federación Internacional.}}</ref>
