Two-time Formula 1 world champion Mika H kkinen is set to return to racing later this year. Yep, that"s the very same Mika H kkinen who can also be described as a 50-year-old father-of-five. Please be our dad, Mika. The Flying Finn will get behind the wheel of a McLaren 720S GT3 for the Suzuka 10 Hours in August, joining two-time Super Formula champion Hiroaki Ishiura and Japanese Formula 3 racer Katsuaki Kubota for the fourth round of the Intercontinental GT Challenge. H kkinen won back-to-back Formula 1 world titles at the wheel of a McLaren in 1998 and 1999, securing both championships with wins at Suzuka. He"s also no stranger to tin-top racing, having spent three seasons competing in DTM before his retirement in 2007.
