Ljungbyhed
Ljungbyhed Notes:
The Ljungbyhed Motobanan is a raceway paved over a former airbase in Ljungbyhed, Sweden, an hour road trip away from Malmo and the Danish border. The runways and taxiways belonging to the Ljungbyhed started receiving motorsports enthusiasts in 1998 when the military decided to leave the facility for civilian use. By 2007 the municipality began using Ljungbyhed as a driver training ground for first responders, and in 2016, it expanded its operations for racing and open lapping activities. The climate in Malmo is oceanic, and the skies tend to be cloudy year-round, with even precipitations throughout the year in the form of light rain or snowfall.
Races in Lyungbyhed start/finish at the beginning of the front straightaway, where high-performance vehicles develop velocities up to 240 km/h (149 mph). The Liljekvist Corner is a rectangle-shaped combination of two 90-degree turns coming in quick succession, dropping the speed to about 60 km/h (37 mph). Another turn combination featuring a pair of sweepers comes before the back straight, known as Porsche-Raken, where racers speed up again, getting to 200 km/h (124 mph). The six remaining corners of the circuit are 90-degree turns, closing the loop back into the front straight, with an average speed of 80 mph (128 km/h)
