1977 Swedish Grand Prix

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The 1977 Swedish Grand Prix was a Formula One race held at the Scandinavian Raceway on June 19, 1977.

At Anderstorp, Jacques Laffite in his Gitanes sponsored Ligier-Matra put in a commanding display, romping to victory. France had been put back on the map: that was the first time that a French car with a French engine, backed by a French company, and driven by a French driver had won a Grand Prix.[citation needed]
