F1 | Drivers' market, Kvyat could race in NASCAR
Guenther Steiner confirmed it: "He asked me for information, he will be in Martinsville over the weekend"
It seems something is moving in Daniil Kvyat's future. The Russian driver, now a reserve at Alpine, is no longer a starter this year, after being dropped again from the Red Bull family at the end of 2020 with his experience in AlphaTauri. Among other things, it seems impossible to see him back in Formula 1 at the moment, given that the seats for 2022 are practically all occupied, with the exception of the one who will join Bottas in Alfa Romeo, but all indications seem to go to a young Formula 1 player , Zhou above all.
“I'm open to many options – Kvyat revealed to TV match, Russian channel. I'm interested in America, but I'm also ready to consider different options in Europe. I would also like to try new things. I want to race, so even if there's no chance Formula 1 in 2022, I'm too stubborn not to try to come back the following year."
“Many drivers want to try NASCAR and American racing, some are moving to IndyCar – said Guenther Steiner, team principal of Haas allo Stewart-Haas Racing Podcast. This would be a big step for them, those series are very different, imagine a NASCAR driver moving to Formula 1. We're not just talking about driving, but a totally different system. Mick attended a race in Texas before the Austin weekend, while Daniil will be in Martinsville. Everyone who goes to watch NASCAR asks me “Hey Guenther, can you get me to talk to someone?”. Daniil will therefore stop in the United States to watch but also to see if there should be any interesting options, because at the moment the doors of Formula 1 seem to be closed for him."
