History

Finnish Junior Formulas

The team was founded in 1997 by brothers Marko and Jari Koiranen. They joined the Finnish Formula 4 championship the same year, and also competed in Nordic and Finnish Formula Three championships until 2005.

Formula Renault

2003 saw Koiranen Motorsport join the German Formula Renault Championship, before expanding their Formula Renault programme to include a Eurocup Formula Renault 2.0 campaign. They experienced their first real success when Valtteri Bottas finished third in the Formula Renault 2.0 Northern European Cup in 2007. The team won their first title in 2010, when Kevin Korjus won the Eurocup title.

In 2011, Red Bull Junior Team started collaboration with the Finnish team.

Editorial summary

This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Koiranen Kemppi Motorsport” as finnish auto racing team. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.

Editorial reviewA practical starting point whose main value is the path it opens into stronger specialist and primary sources. The current lead gives the account dated anchors—2015, 2018, 2016, 2017—that can be checked directly. The linked authority record independently contributes the date 1997. The account is most persuasive where Koiranen, Kemppi and Motorsport can be independently traced.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as finnish auto racing team. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.

Evidence profile

Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 24, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q2273613. 2 of 2 selected statements include explicit references; 1 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 2015, 2018, 2016 and 2017.

Critical limits

A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Use the entry as an orientation point, then follow its citations and revision history. Names, dates and institutional relationships should be checked against the original record.
