Former two-time Formula 1 world champion
Mika Hakkinen is apparently heavily involved in Mercedes-Benz's road car development programme.
Photographs have emerged of the retired 39-year-old Finn, who won his titles with
McLaren in 1998 and 1999 with Mercedes power, driving a development prototype of the German marque's 2010
AMG E-Class, which was painted in a black and white test livery.
Also in the car was Klaus Ludwig, a famous German touring car driver.
Mercedes has not announced the launch date for the car.
