What does the future hold for Kimi Raikkonen ahead of his racing career?

Kimi Raikkonen was one of the most recognized faces in Formula 1. In his career spanning over 2 decades, he drove with some of the most iconic teams, which included the likes of McLaren, Ferrari, Lotus, and Sauber. He was the F1 world champion in 2007 with Ferrari; still the last driver to bring the Prancing Horse a championship victory. However, after leaving the sport for a short while, The Iceman returned in 2012 with Lotus and had the chance to have a 2nd stint with the Scuderia, partnering with Sebastian Vettel.

However, after being replaced by young blood Charles Leclerc, he drove for Sauber (Alfa Romeo) in the final years of his F1 career and hung his helmet up after the 2021 season.

But the Finn wasn't done with motorsports; he made his NASCAR Cup Series debut, unfortunately ending in a crash. Since then, he has largely been inactive in racing, but there have been rumors (as AutoRacing1.com wrote) of him joining the IndyCar crew on a part-time basis for 2023, sharing a seat with Jimmie Johnson, a former 7-time NASCAR Cup Series champion.
