Biggest change in the teams is in Mercedes AMG. Niko Rosberg won the F1 world championship last season, but he surprisingly informed just few days after the season he will quit racing in F1. Mercedes AMG found the new driver from Williams and he is Valtteri Bottas. It will be interesting to see how fast Bottas will be against Hamilton.

F1 World Champion Nico Rosberg Retirement

Tachometer Blog | F1 World Champion Nico Rosberg Retirement

Nico Rosberg has announced his retirement from Formula One less than one week after he won the world championship in Abu Dhapi.

Nico: "I want to take the opportunity to announce I've decided to end my Formula One career in this moment here, on Monday. To explain, ever since I started, when I was 6 years old, I had a very, very clear dream, and that was to become Formula One world champion. It was very clear in my mind, as long as I can think when I was growing up. Now I've achieved that, I've put everything into it for 25 years of racing."

Nico's father Keke Rosberg won F1 world championship in 1982 on Williams.

It's Summer Now - Welcome Boats and Jetskis

Tornio, Finland. Summer has started also finally here in North Finland. This is easy to see on the streets, when people ride motorcycles. Even stronger sign of summer is anyway, when people start using boats and jetskis.

Beautifull Miami Vice style muscle boat.
Model: Formula 311 SR-1
Lengt: 10m
Width: 2,40m
Weight: 3500Kg
Engine: Volvo Penta x 2, 300hp
Top Speed: 50 knots
Even the weather was nice, water temperature in the river is still cold and it´s still good to use wet suite when riding jetski.
Development in the jetskis have been staggering. Now there are available even 300hp models.

Model: Seadoo GTR 215
Engine: Rotax 1503cc Supercharged
Power: 215hp
Weight (Dry): 363Kg

Enough power and water on the air.
Hopefully it will be long and hot summer, so it will be also more fun on the water.

Regards,
Mika
