I got to meet Mika Hakkinen at the Canadian Grand Prix back in 1994.
At the time I thought he was a cry baby, can't remember which team he drove
for back then, but I don't think it was McLaren???
Seems like he's grown up since then, guess being 2-time defending F1 champ
will do that (so sorry Ferrari/Schumacher).
I still remember the first practice session of that race, the first time one
of those F1 cars came by, it sent shivers up and down my spine, then it
disappeared over the hill, I'll never forget it.

Was it Mikkola that drove a 2 liter roadster in international rallies in
the late 60's?
....and Rapala, I used to take my roadster on fishing trips in the late
70's and this was the lure of choice.
