The new karting track at Gelleråsen Arena has now been inaugurated, where the final of the Prince Carl Philips Racing Pokal will be decided on October 7-8. The official circuit opening took place last Saturday in the middle of the classic Kanonloppet (”the cannon race”).

This year's fourth STCC event was held last weekend, August 18^th-20^th, at Gelleråsen Arena in Sweden. After a difficult qualifying for Andreas Bäckman, he got his revenge on the race day and took two podium positions. “Good race day with two podiums, a lot of overtaking and fun to show that the speed is there for the upcoming races”, Andreas Bäckman says.
