Description	: Prnu Ring, formely known as Sauga, or most recently as Andru Ring, a flat circuit in the coast of southern Estonia, at Prnu city. Its first races were in the 1930s, in a non-permanent 6 km triangle circuit, which lasts until the 1960s. In the late 1980s, racing return to Prnu in a semi-permanent and shortened version of the circuit, open in 1989, at the same time when negociations were held between the Formula 1 (FOCA) and the Soviet Union for the first Soviet Formula 1 Grand Prix. In 1989, Estonia was still a Soviet Republic, and the center of Soviet motorsport. During that year, Estonia was announced as the chosen Republic for the future Soviet GP. Prnu Ring, then recently shortened, was a option in the Republic for the race. However, in the same 1989, few months later, the Iron Curtain falls, and the project of a Soviet GP on F-1 schedule was fading in the two following years. The circuit follow its path in the independent Estonia after 1991, host mostly motorcycle road races, and had two improvements in the early 2000s and early 2010s to become a full permanent short circuit in 2013, renamed as Andru Ring. This GP2 version is about the 1989-2000 semi-permanent version of Prnu Ring, with the start/finish line in the same place of the original 1930s circuit, following the permanent sector of turns, until the return to the roads west of Prnu, including a chicane in the last sector as well.

List of winners:
Don't need... you all know Prnu Ring was open for the second time in 1989, and never held any international series, was just a national semi-permanent venue, mostly for motorcycle racing, had a chance to appear in a early 1990s F-1 schedule as the track of Soviet GP, but it never happened because USSR falls and Estonia became independent, and ultimately Prnu Ring was reprofiled as Andru Ring, a modern permanent venue in 2013, and blah-blah-blah...
