The grid currently has three pilots there - Kimi Raikkonen and Valtteri Bottas of Finland and Marcus Ericsson of Sweden.According to Marcus Scandinavian fans are many and will support such an event:
"I do not see how it will happen soon, but it would be great from sport to organize a competition in northern Europe. In Scandinavia appreciate motorposrt traditions and F1 is quite Swedes and Finns. It would be nice to have a race there because scary many people will come to watch it. I know that such an event is worth a lot of money and I do not think that a country like Sweden can not afford it, but certainly the interest in it will be huge. "
Eriskon himself made his debut in Formula 1 in 2014 with launches and so became the first Swede on the starting grid for the Grand Prix of Canada in 1991 with Stefan Johansson.
