Does DC STILL hold a grudge against Mika Hakkinen about THIS? | Up To Speed

We’re up in Manchester to see DC & Mika Hakkinen on their UK tour, ‘Racing Icons’, as they bring us stories of getting stopped by the Finnish police, naked saunas and bust ups with their McLaren boss, Ron Dennis.

Mika, two-time world champion and only driver Michael Schumacher ever feared, was DC’s teammate for a record 7 seasons. And as we’ve all seen this season, teammate dynamics are never easy in F1… From Mercedes balancing Kimi Antonelli’s joy and George Russell’s disappointment, to Ferrari refusing to favour Lewis Hamilton or Charles Leclerc.

So, is history repeating itself? What advice would they give the current drivers? Did McLaren have a secret favourite between DC and Mika? And what do they make of the new 2027 F1 calendar, with over double the amount of races they had?
