2015
Supercup
Ristos Supercup season consisted mainly of learning how to drive openwheelers and trailing Ruud Heesterbeek for most of the season. He learned so well, that he was the main candidate for the championship win alongside Ruud after the summer break.
World Sport Series
The 2015 World Sport Series seemed like an easy grab for Risto after winning the 2014 Virtual Carrera Cup at Touring Pro Series from Tim Heinemann, but numerous mistakes, reverse grids and enduring maximum weight ballast for most of the season meant a net 2nd place behind Kevin Siggy. Very embarrassing.
World GT
Risto was called to help Walk Racing out for the last 2 races in Silverstone and COTA, replacing someone whos name is not remembered and winning both races by half a minute.
Atlantic Series
The man was again called in to help clinch the team championship of Walk Racing with 2 rounds remaining. First race in Sebring resulted with top5 pace being thrown away into a wall thanks to poor framerates and a podium lost in COTA thanks to underfueling.
2016
His 2016 endeouver with VBMotorsport will be cut to short in the middle of the season, as he has to depart to mandatory army conscription on the 4th of July for 11 months.
Supercup
On February 7th it was announced that Risto will drive the #67 Streetfighter Racing System car for the 2016 Supercup season, partnering David Francic. His first win of the season came in Round 4 at Barcelona, achiveing Streetfighters first ever 1-2 in the process.
World GT
For the 2016 season Risto will also drive for SRS systems.
