Former Formula One champion Kimi Räikkönen has tendered his driver application and resume to NASCAR, the sanctioning body confirmed Wednesday.
Räikkönen has sought and received approval to compete in the May 20 NC Education Lottery 200 Camping World Truck Series race at Charlotte Motor Speedway, according to NASCAR spokesperson Kerry Tharp.
Beyond that, Räikkönen’s plans have not been announced. A newspaper in his native Finland cited Raikonnen as saying he intends to bring his ICE-1 Racing team to NASCAR competition with former RPM boss Foster Gillett as one of his financial partners.
