Former F1 world champion Kimi Räikkönen saw his NASCAR Cup Series debut come to an early conclusion after a final-stage crash at Watkins Glen International
Aug 21, 2022
Räikkönen’s day in the No. 91 Trackhouse Racing Chevrolet ended just before the halfway mark of the race after he got jammed up in the bus-stop chicane on Lap 44 of the 90-lap race. The Iceman was on the receiving end of contact and was pushed into the tire barrier. “I had a good line there … unfortunately I had no time to react,” Raikkonen. “The first impact, somebody hit the tire or the wheels directly and the wheels spun.
The 42-year-old was understandably one of the more intriguing entries at Watkins Glen given his previous F1 prowess. He accumulated 21 Grand Prix victories and 103 podiums during his 19-year run in the sport before retiring in 2021.
