Two F1 legends teaming up for ROCSweden
Bottas has hailed as ‘crazy’ his experience of lining up alongside Mika Hakkinen for Team Finland at the 2023 Race of Champions.
Pairing up as teammates for their country, Team Finland were knocked out in the first round of the Nations Cup, while both Bottas and Hakkinen were knocked out in the last 16 stages. But the impact of lining up alongside two-time Formula 1 World Champion Hakkinen wasn’t lost on Bottas, who was just 10 years old when the Finn claimed his second consecutive title for McLaren in 1999.
Having watched his compatriot defeat Michael Schumacher and Eddie Irvine over his two title years and, despite being a long-term teammate of seven-time World Champion Lewis Hamilton at Mercedes, Bottas said it’s “pretty cool” to team up with a legend of Finnish motorsport. “If I had been told as a child that I would drive with Mika one day, it would have been pretty crazy because he was my big hero,” Bottas said.
