History
Timo Mäkinen was born in Helsinki, Finland, on 18th March 1938. He started his professional life by delivering newspapers for his father's transport company. Soon he started racing in ice track events, subsequently entering circuit races.
In the late 1950s he hit the headlines for the first time through his success at the wheel of a Jaguar D-Type. A fantastic flourish of rally wins in the Mini Cooper S came through 1964 to 1967.
In 1967 Timo became a true rally legend when pictures emerged of the Finn driving his Mini at a furious speed through Ouninpohja with the car's bonnet open. Leather straps holding the bonnet were not thoroughly tightened, and they opened after a few rough bounces. He tried to put his head out of the side window but his helmet was too big and he could only stick his head halfway out so he had to skid the car sideways continuously to see the road ahead. Even so Mäkinen was third fastest on that special stage and he also won the rally overall.
His wins in the Mini were the 1964 Tulip Rally, 1965 Monte Carlo Rally, 1965 1000 Lakes, 1966 1000 Lakes, 1966 Three Cities Rally, 1967 1000 Lakes.
