Kimi heading back to Nascar

Debuts at Watkins Glen. At least that's what I read in todays Motorsport news. Cup cars.

And they will call him a 'rookie'. Blahaha

He may be a rookie in going round in circles but is a former WDC in the premier motorsport series.

I'm a bit ambivalent about this, not a fan of NASCAR. Wish he had gone to WEC or LeMans type stuff.

I have no idea how the current crop of NASCAR's handle as I haven't watched a race with them.
But given the move to IRS and no longer being stuck with solid axle for roadcourses he might do ok.

His biggest problem when he came to Charlotte was heat, couldn't take a weekend of it.

He knows they race in a 1/8th mile circle, on the dirt, in the L.A. Coliseum, right.

Given one of his past times is off road vehicles I doubt dirt is a detriment to him.
