Polestar 2 LRDM came to me in the beginning of 2023 to the coldest winter. It was the first EV to me and I bought it without a test drive. I had some past experience driving a Volvo and had confidence with Polestar’s engineering experience how to manage the slippery slopes in the cold North. I fell love with the Polestar instantly.

After cruising joyfully in the winter conditions I found that EV community organized track days in Kymiring Finland in the summer. When I saw it I knew I had to take a part, instantly. There I got some driving coaching from Esa Hakulinen and with him I drove first time over 200 km/h.

After that I have driven track days in Finland and also ice tracks, which are absolutely my favorite! After a one snowy and icy day at Juha Kankkunen Driving Academy in Kuusamo, Kirsi, Lasse and Oskari inspired me to participate to Time Attack King of Finland and that’s the way I ended here, behind the wheel of Polestar with a helmet and driving suit constantly trying to do my best, one lap at a time.
