Jyrki Jarvilehto was a protege of the 1982 World Champion Keke Rosberg who advised him to use the more manageable "J.J. Lehto" name for racing purposes.
He continued to drive for this outfit until it collapsed with considerable debts in the summer of 1990 after which he switched to Dallara in 1991, scoring his first podium finish with a third place in the San Marino Grand Prix.
Lehto stayed with Dallara in 1992 and then switched to the emergent Sauber team for its first Formula 1 season in 1993 and on to Benetton as Michael Schumacher's teammate in 1994.

Instead of stopping the race to clear the track of debris and then restarting the race (which was the normal procedure at the time), race officials decided to bring out the safety car to lead the cars around the track until the track was clear.
Lehto made two more appearances for Benetton in the latter stages of the season, but by now, with his confidence terminally damaged, it was clear that Lehto's Formula One career was effectively over.
Lehto was then drafted in to the Sauber team for the final two events of the 1994 season, races which would be his last in Formula One.

 8W - Who? - JJ Lehto
But life wasn't as easy in F3000, the Pacific team never really on the pace, with Lehto also having to face up to the fact that his team mate Eddie Irvine was the quicker of the two on most occasions.
This led to his first full season with Mike Earle's outfit but the season went bad early when the involvement of Belgian Jean-Pierre van Rossem turned sour and the team went into a steep decline, which thankfully was ended prematurely after Hungary.
Lehto lived through the entire saga and was lucky to be picked up for next season by the promising BMS Scuderia Italia outfit of Beppe Lucchini and Giampaolo Dallara.
