Turns out My summer car is actually one of the most accurate depictions of finland
-
The main thing i gotta say about Mika is that he has a great discrete sense of humour.
-
If Kimi was here instead of Mika James: How would you go through this corner? Kimi: bwoah just turn the wheel
-
Honestly, I was a little taken aback by Mika. The man had a depth to him. You can see it in his eyes and face. This man is a beautiful combination of intellect and humor.
-
I'm a finn, I've never heard a actually good way to explain Sisu in english until recently. Sisu means that you are willing to do, what you have to do. Without any consideration of you own safety, or well being. And knowing that you propably won't get any thanks for it. You just do it.
-
5:18 I love how he just says "Yes." Looks at the camera and exactly knows what he's doing😂
-
May: "They're quite reserved, the Finns. I mean, you, famously, when you were a F1 driver, they'd ask you a really complicated question and you'd just say 'Yes'?" Häkkinen: "Yes."
-
James was absolutely the perfect person to do this segment with Mika, it is endlessly charming.
-
What a friendly personality of this man.
-
"I'm not really good on gravel," then he drives like a pro rally driver lol
-
They call him Captain Slow but he'll whip the most of us on a race track.
-
2:37 i love how he said 'i can indeed'
-
You get the feeling that Mika really likes James and enjoyed this bit. I've seen him smile on Camera more in this segment than I did in all my years of watching him in F1.
-
Mika Häkkinen and Michael Schumaher. Man I wish they'd still race in the F1. It was so much fun to watch them race against eachother. Truly two of the best drivers.
-
I've always loved how James pronouces Mika Häkkinen correctly, that's rare
-
I'm so happy Mika made it to a nice retirement... I still remember him waiving on his way out. I was confused because at the time I didn't know that was his last race. He was turning Brutal Lap times when the McLaren failed... yet Mika maintained his composure... A Class Act All Around...
-
The response to "I like to have the air vents on my car all pointed the same way, is that Finnish" is one of the all time great moments of TG.
-
I swear, Mika Hakkinen hasn't aged at all.
-
Mika’s sense of humor is so low-key it’s almost unnoticeable
-
I once went out with Jackie Stewart, who won the world championship 3 times...instead of 2. MIKA GRINNING FROM EAR TO EAR
