Drivers Who’ve Raced Both F1 and NASCAR 🚗🏎

People always wonder if anyone’s ever done both — run F1 and NASCAR. Turns out, yeah, a few pretty big names have strapped into both kinds of cars. ✅ Juan Pablo Montoya Probably the best modern example. He raced for Williams and McLaren in F1, won multiple Grands Prix, then moved to NASCAR full time for several years. Even snagged a couple Cup Series wins. ✅ Kimi Räikkönen The freaking Iceman. F1 World Champ. Tried a few NASCAR Truck and Xfinity races back in 2011, then did a Cup start at Watkins Glen in 2022. Looked pretty solid too. ✅ Jacques Villeneuve F1 champ (and Indy 500 winner). Has tried Cup, Xfinity and Truck races. Never found much success in NASCAR but still super cool he gave it a go. ✅ Daniil Kvyat Former Red Bull F1 driver. Ran a NASCAR Cup race at Indy’s road course in 2022. Still getting his feet wet. ✅ Mario Andretti Absolute legend. Won in F1, IndyCar, AND also ran some NASCAR Cup races back in the day (even won the 1967 Daytona 500). So yeah, it’s rare — and super tough to be good at both — but it does happen. Just shows how badass some of these drivers really are. #F1 #NASCAR #RacingLegends #Motorsports #Crossover

My All-Time NASCAR Top 10

Been thinking about this one over a couple Lone Stars on the porch. Here’s MY personal NASCAR top 10. No fancy stats, just who made me jump off the couch or curse at the TV growing up. 1️⃣ Dale Earnhardt Sr. — The Intimidator. No one, and I mean no one, made my heart race (or stop) like Dale. 2️⃣ Jeff Gordon — Rainbow Warrior tore it up. Hated him as a kid ‘cause he kept beating my guys, but damn if he wasn’t good. 3️⃣ Tony Stewart — Old Smoke. Didn’t take crap from anybody, wheelman on any surface. 4️⃣ Dale Jr. — Not his dad, but brought NASCAR into a new era and carried the sport on his shoulders. 5️⃣ Jimmie Johnson — Seven-time. Made winning look boring (which is a compliment). 6️⃣ Rusty Wallace — Always a threat on short tracks. 7️⃣ Mark Martin — Clean racer, total class act. Should’ve been champ. 8️⃣ Kevin Harvick — Took over the 3 legacy, turned into a badass in his own right. 9️⃣ Carl Edwards — Backflips and always gave 110%. 🔟 Bill Elliott — Awesome Bill from Dawsonville. Fast, humble, and that Southern charm. Yeah, I left some legends off. That’s what makes it fun. Who’s on your list? #NASCAR #Top10 #RacingLegends #TexasPride
