The Danish Grand Prix was an open-wheel racing car motor race, sometimes held for Formula One. Last held for Formula One cars in 1962, the race is now defunct. The Danish Grand Prix was held at the Roskilde Ring circuit near Roskilde. By standards of the era, the circuit was very small, at just three quarters of a mile for the lap. Formula One cars were completing the lap in just over 42 seconds. The circuit ultimately limited the growth potential of the race, and the event was not considered to be added to the World Drivers Championship, but during its relatively short life in the 1960s it did stage some memorable races.
