Like it or not, you can’t call yourself a real rallycross fan without a visit to the iconic Höljes circuit in Sweden. As Monaco is to F1, or Mugello is to MotoGP, the Magic Weekend - as it is known affectionately to fans - is an iconic fixture on the rallycross season calendar.
What’s more it has been a staple of the FIA World Rallycross Championship since its inception, as well as the preceding FIA European Rallycross Championship since 1991. Set deep within the seemingly endless Finnskogen forests of the Swedish county of Värmland, the circuit is a unique mix of jumps, dirt, asphalt and dust - surrounded by amphitheatre-like banks, on which hoards of fans dig in, keen to catch watch the wheel to wheel action.
