Well due to off-season and me busy with exams , wasnt able to post this. Hakkinen is back to testing with Mclaren Mercedes , So is he coming back to formula one you may ask , we are not sure :P . He was the slowest of all the formula one drivers that day in testing and was about 3 seconds behind Ferrari test driver Luca Badoer.
"After five years, to come back in F1 and to go very hard, flat out, I think I would make mistakes.
"The risk would be damaging the car. That would first of all not look professional and I don't think I would learn anything then.
"I think it would be unfair for people to automatically expect, after five years, I could go maximum attack and bang in a time."
