Hi again Bill,


Yes, my info was right.

Mika Hakkinen the Formula 1 Car World Champ is the son of Arno Hakkinens brother.



Arno is driving boat # 17

I am pretty sure this boat is somewhere here on BRF, but I cannot find it.

This is one bad boat.

Driver and owner Renato...

There is two more new race stories at the thread "super Swede Lars Strom" now.
