- INFO: is a motor racing circuit located in Hämeenlinna, Finland. Distinctive by being twisty and narrow with multiple elevation changes, the circuit is also one of a handful around the world to feature a figure-of-eight crossover layout. Today the track mostly hosts races in national and Nordic championships and cups, including the Finnish Touring Car Championship, NEZ Racing Championship, Nordic Supercar, Finnish Rallycross Championship and Historic Race Finland.

The father of the idea to build the circuit was renowned racing driver and sawmill owner Arvo Sorri. In the late 1950s, he announced plans for a track. After a few years the project was restarted by Heikki Mikkola. A course with an unusual figure-of-eight design was penned by engineer Mikko Köppä, who needed the crossover in order to cram in as much track as possible in a small space. The new Ahvenisto course had been beaten to the post as Finland's first permanent track by Keimola by the time it opened on 16 July 1967, though of course it would go on to outlive its rival by more than 40 years. After the initial successes, spectator numbers began to dwindle and the track ran into financial difficulties, exacerbated by the energy crisis in 1972. The operating company went bankrupt and ownership passed to the City of Hämeenlinna a year later. The circuit rebounded somewhat from 1973, this time on two wheels, when Ahvenisto was chosen as part of the then new FIM Formula 750 races. From 1973-75 Ahvenisto featured on the calendar of a series which variously held World or European Championship status. While no further international circuit races have been held at Ahvenisto, between 1980 and 1999 a total of 18 FIA European Rallycross Championship events were organised on a modified, mixed-surface version of the circuit, with some of the run-offs converted into gravel sections.
