I wish we could play this for more than 10 min per day.

You don't want to breed all night over it to make it extra difficult, will you? This is supposed to be for fun.

If it's meant for fun let the question master speak when he's ready instead of getting pushy bud

When it comes to Grand Prix' won by a Swedish-born driver, Ronnie Peterson is on top with ten, but who is second?

[WhiteBlue]

Joakim Bonnier and Gunnar Nilsson won 1 GP each although I suspect you are looking for a pre F1 racer with more than one win.

Per-Viktor Widengren won the Swedish Winter GP twice and the Norwegian GP twice + other Swedish GP events called Vallentunaloppet and Långforssjöloppet. So he got six non Championship counting GP wins to his name which is four less than Ronnie Peterson.

If you are looking for a driver who was born in Sweden and drove under another flag (like USA) it will be very difficult for those not too familiar with the nordic racing scene.

Quite obviously, I am referring to Formula One Grand Prix victories, Bonnier and Nilsson had one each, but is not the right answer.

Then it is probably Keke Rosberg who was born 6 December 1948 in Solna, Stockholm County, Sweden. 5 F1 wins.

Phil Hill and Mike Hawthorn had only 3 wins

It seems clear that the advent of Wikipedia has made it hard to make a quiz ilke this difficult without obscure images.

Anyway, WB is correct of course, Keke spent most of his early FVee career in Sweden as well, living in Växjö near Stefan Johansson actually. Speaks perfect Swedish of course.
He won only one GP during his WDC year, being the "Swiss GP" at Dijon, an odd one at that.

Your go WB (I fear for this one)!

Schumacher is holding record wins with six and more at 7 Grand Prix
France 8x
Canada 7x
San Marino 7x
Belgium 6x
Europe 6x
Japan 6x
Spain 6x
Who else managed to win the same GP six times and was considered the fastest man on earth.

Senna won 6 times in Monaco

[WhiteBlue]

50% right. But Sena did not hold a speed record. Look for a man who also held the land speed record.

And another hint: Our man also won the Mille Miglia and the Tourist Trophy.

Rudolf Caracciola of course.
