Luckless Finn still thinks he can win
Mikko Kozarowitzky, yet to score in the Peter Stuyvesant series after three rounds, said he could win both remaining rounds at Teretonga and Wigram whether or not fellow Finn Keke Rosberg stayed. Mechanical misfortune (fuel problem, broken distributor, flat tyre) had wrecked his chances. A 27-year-old former junior tennis star living in Holland, he was reigning European Formula Vee champion.
