Hakkinen to test McLaren on Thursday
29 November 2006

  Two-times Formula 1 World Champion Mika Hakkinen will drive a Team
McLaren Mercedes Formula 1 car for the first time since the 2001 Japanese
Grand Prix on Thursday 30th November 2006 when he will conduct a day's
testing at the Circuit de Catalunya near Barcelona, Spain.

  This will constitute part of the team's winter testing programme in
preparation for the 2007 season in which double World Champion Fernando
Alonso and GP2 Champion Lewis Hamilton will be competing for Vodafone
McLaren Mercedes.

  Mika asked for the opportunity to re-familiarise himself with a Formula
1 car, and the team will use this test to benefit from Mika's experience
and obtain his feedback with regards to changes in downforce, engine and
tyres following the regulatory changes which have occurred since he last
drove a Formula 1 car.

  Since retiring from Formula 1, Mika has remained an integral part of the
Team McLaren Mercedes family by competing in the DTM Touring Car Championship
as a works driver for Mercedes-Benz with an AMG-Mercedes C Class. Only last
week the links were further strengthened when Mika was announced as an
ambassador for Johnnie Walker - a long-term commercial partner of Team
McLaren Mercedes.

  "I'm really excited about driving a Team McLaren Mercedes Formula 1 car
again and to be re-engaging with the team," said the 38-year-old Finn. "I
have followed the Formula 1 World Championship closely since my retirement
at the end of the 2001 season, but it was when I was at this year's Brazilian
Grand Prix as a guest of the team that I really felt I would like to get a
chance to drive a Formula 1 car again. I have recently spent some time in
Team McLaren Mercedes' simulator in Woking and to get the possibility to
drive the MP4-21 is something I'm really looking forward to. I would like
to thank Ron and Norbert for making this happen. This test is a chance for
me to see how much Formula 1 cars have advanced and experience first hand
what they are like to drive today as well as providing the team with some
feedback on various aspects of the car's performance."
