  • Pada Minggu (21/8/2022) nanti, Kimi Raikkonen akan menjalani debut di ajang NASCAR Cup.
  • Kimi Raikkonen terbujuk ajakan Justin Marks untuk bergabung dengan Project 91 di ajang NASCAR.
  • Salah satu persiapan Kimi Raikkonen adalah latihan dalam simulator di Virginia.

SKOR.id - Kimi Raikkonen memulai babak baru di ajang balap mobil setelah memutuskan pensiun dari ajang Formula 1 (F1) pada akhir musim 2021.

Dilansir dari Crash.net, pembalap Finlandia tersebut akan memulai debut di ajang balap NASCAR Cup di Watkins Glen, Amerika Serikat pada Minggu (21/8/2022) waktu setempat.

Eks pembalap Ferrari tersebut bergabung dalam Project 91 milik Justin Marks dan memulai debut NASCAR dengan tim TrackHouse Racing.

Menurut Raikkonen, NASCAR adalah ajang yang tepat bagi pembalap mobil dari daratan Eropa untuk menjajal kemampuan balap di lintasan oval yang terkenal di Amerika Serikat.

"Saya rasa ini adalah peluang yang luar biasa bagi para pembalap dari Eropa," kata Raikkonen menjelaskan.

"Saya melihat ada peluang yang sama untuk memenangi seri balap di sana. Saya masih dalam tahap belajar bersama dengan seluruh anggota tim dengan mobil yang baru."

"Saya belum menjajal balapan apa pun setelah seri terakhir F1 (2021). Jadi, saya sangat antusias dengan mobil ini."

"Tim kami telah bekerja dengan baik. Saya senang dikelilingi orang-orang menyenangkan. Semoga saja kami bisa meraih hasil yang memuaskan," katanya.

Pembalap 42 tahun tersebut mengakui bahwa awalnya dirinya ogah kembali ke dunia balap setelah memutuskan pensiun dari F1.

Akan tetapi, semua berubah ketika Justin Marks datang menawarkan Project 91 dan mengajaknya terjun ke dunia NASCAR.

Raikkonen merasa bahwa NASCAR adalah tempat yang tepat untuk menjajal pengalaman baru di luar F1.

Apalagi, para pembalap F1 di masa lalu seperti Jimmy Clark, Graham Hill, Jackie Stewart, Niki Lauda, dan James Hunt juga menjajal ajang NASCAR.

"Justin datang ke rumah saya di Swiss dan meyakinkan saya betapa dia serius dengan program bersama ini," kata Raikkonen tentang rencana gabung NASCAR.

"Pengalaman ini akan menyenangkan. Saya bertekad untuk tampil serius. Saya tahu betapa kompetitifnya ajang ini dan juga sebesar apa tantangan yang akan datang."

Sebagai rookie di ajang NASCAR, Raikkonen telah melakukan persiapan dengan melakoni tes di Virginia International Raceway pekan kemarin.

Dia pun telah menghabiskan waktu berjam-jam di belakang kemudi simulator bersama dengan Daniel Suarez yang telah mendedikasikan hidup untuk dunia NASCAR.

"Saya sangat memuji pekerjaan Justin. Saya rasa dia sangat jujur dan lugas. Dia tidak memberikan iming-iming apapun," tuturnya.

"Satu hal yang bisa kami lakukan sekarang adalah melakukan yang terbaik dan semoga mendapatkan hasil positif. Anda tidak pernah tahu apa yang akan datang nantinya."
