His Helmet...
Mika explains how he chose his helmet's paint scheme:
"I chose the design of my helmet when I was kart racing for the 'Blue Rose Team'. The basic design includes the Finnish national colours and I thought that was neat. I was in the same team as the rally drivers Mika Sohlberg and Sebastian Lindholm who went for very similar helmet designs to mine."
