Kimi Raikkonen has not ruled out further NASCAR outings after his latest Cup Series appearance. F1 KimiRaikkonen NASCAR
When Raikkonen retired from Formula 1 at the end of the 2021 campaign, he did so with no other plans in place at the time as he instead headed for home to spend more time with his family.
And it appears lightning can strike twice as Raikkonen competed for the team once more at the 2023 EchoPark Automotive Grand Prix, held at the Circuit of The Americas, host of the the Formula 1 United States Grand Prix and the scene of Raikkonen’s final grand prix win in 2018. Sadly his outing did not finish on such a high as he got involved in some wheel-banging on his way down the order, including with the debuting 2009 F1 champ Jenson Button, and also suffered a spin as he went on to ultimately finish P29.
