Nascar gets more F1 experience – Kimi Räikkönen gets a familiar competitor

Former F1 men are interested in Nascar.

Jenson Button, 43, will make his Nascar debut at the Austin event at the end of the month. Britti gets the Rick Ware Racing team’s Ford Mustang.

In the same race, the Finnish F1 legend will also be seen on the track Kimi Raikkonen, who announced his Nascar return the other day on his Instagram account. Räikkönen represents the Trackhouse Racing team at Watkins Glen.

After ending his 16-season F1 career, Button has, among other things, driven for three seasons in the Super GT series, which he won in the GT500 class in 2018.

Button’s Nascar contract covers three races.
