A racing driver from Johannesburg, Michael Kernick, rewrote history recently at Sweden’s Anderstorp Raceway
Kernick beat the rest of the field of old cars, setting the five fastest laps in the process by becoming the first South African to win a race there since Jody Scheckter’s Grand Prix win in 1976.
The weekend started with two short practice sessions, where he tested the historic Formula Vee from 1971 in the rain. On Friday, there were two practice sessions for the Gt40 and two for the historic Formula Vee races.
