F1: Hamilton again says he would like to try a NASCAR race someday
–by Mark Cipolloni–
Now that he is past his prime and on the downside of his F1 career, Lewis Hamilton says he would like to try NASCAR some day, but doesn’t see it happening soon.
The F1 drivers who have tried NASCAR did not do so until they were washed up.
“I did a car swap with Tony Stewart years ago, which was fun,” Hamilton said Thursday afternoon ahead of this weekend’s Formula 1 Miami Grand Prix around the home stadium of the Miami Dolphins.
“I’d love to try it at some stage. It’s not a dream for me to go race another series, but I am an admirer. I’m a fan of racing and other sports. So I would like to try it.”
Out of fear of embarrassing themselves and NASCAR, a NASCAR driver will likely never do an F1 race.
