Kimi at Watkins Glen

A one race invitation to compete in the NASCAR Cup Series race at Watkins Glen.
Says Kimi...“I wasn’t looking to race again, but Justin Marks (co-owner of Trackhouse Racing) came to my home in Switzerland and convinced me how serious he was about putting together a top-notch program. This will be fun, but it’s something I will take very seriously. I know how competitive the NASCAR Cup Series is and it will be a big challenge.”

I think I'm going to go to this race. Would love to see Kimi and Chastain smash watermelons.

"Kimi has crashed! He and Austin Dillon have gone around in the bus stop, and Raikkonen has hit the tire barrier and suffered extensive front end damage. He got turned by Ross Chastain, and then Raikkonen ended up making wheel-to-wheel contact with Loris Hezemans in that scrum. That sent Raikkonen off track and into the barrier.
Raikkonen is now out of his car and done for the day."

"Raikkonen and Trackhouse’s efforts have not only brought a lot of fresh international eyes onto NASCAR but proved that the new-for-2022 cars really will give “global champions” chance to be competitive and have fun if they want to give it a try."

Was so upset to see Chastain involved in the incident.

Super hyped that Larson swept the weekend. Guy is such a beast.

Next Gen cars are lightyears ahead of last chassis and it shows in the road course races this year. Shame about crash maybe if they had raced more in the wet who knows? Heck Joey Hand was there to rent out himself.
