I found this dead little guy in southern Finland, can anyone help me identify it? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

There are three wings, so I guess it lost one of them. There's also a big hole in the head (shown in last pic) and some of the legs appear to be missing. Sorry for the shitty photos, I took them on my phone.

Looks like a bumblebee. Hard to tell which, maybe bombus festivus or bombus pascuorum?

Not an entomologist, just googling.
