The former Sauber, McLaren, Ferrari, Lotus, and Alfa Romeo driver will therefore take part in a NASCAR event at the Austin circuit on Sunday, March 26th.<\/p>\n<p>This will not be a first in this category for the Finnish driver. In 2022, R\u00e4ikk\u00f6nen had participated in a NASCAR race at Watkins Glen during which he had been involved in an accident despite a promising overall performance.<\/p>\n<p>Within the <i>Trackhouse Racing&#8217;s PROJECT91<\/i> team, the 43-year-old driver is looking forward to being back on the track: &#8220;I have had wonderful moments in NASCAR. At Watkins Glen, there was a lot to learn but everyone supported me, and the competition was a real challenge.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Contrary to the circuit located in the state of New York, R\u00e4ikk\u00f6nen is familiar with the COTA (Circuit Of The Americas) in Austin, as he notably won his last Formula 1 race there in 2018 with Ferrari: \u00ab It&#8217;s true that I know this circuit well. But with a NASCAR car, it will be completely different, particularly in terms of aerodynamic downforce. \u00bb<\/p>\n<p>As usual, the one who started in F1 in 2001, the same year as a certain Fernando Alonso, will give everything to achieve a great performance: &#8220;I want to enjoy this race, but also do the best we can to obtain the best possible result.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In addition to NASCAR, R\u00e4ikk\u00f6nen has already tried his hand at other categories. During his break from Formula 1 in 2010 and 2011, the Finnish driver notably participated in several rounds of the World Rally Championship with Citro\u00ebn, achieving a best result of fifth place at the 2010 Rally Turkey.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Formula 1 World Champion of 2007 will once again participate in a race of the legendary American championship at the Austin circuit on March 26th.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":98,"featured_media":34010,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1,1749],"tags":[777,1235],"class_list":["post-4149","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-f1","category-news","tag-raikkonen","tag-pilotes"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.2 -
