    FILE - In this Feb. 20, 2011, file photo, Dale Earnhardt Jr. (88) and Martin Truex Jr. (56) team up during the Daytona 500 NASCAR auto race at Daytona International Speedway in Daytona Beach, Fla. Two-car tandems took over the season-opening Daytona 500, where the huge pack of cars broke apart as drivers realized that the fastest way around the superspeedway was with just one partner. Two drivers hooked up, took turns pushing each other to the front, then swapped the lead when their engines got too hot from all that pushing. Many fans fear a repeat of that racing at Talladega, and by every indication, that's exactly what they'll see. (AP Photo/Lynne Sladky, File)

Raikkonen is reportedly planning to enter a Truck Series race at Charlotte next month. If he does try NASCAR, he'd follow Juan Pablo Montoya, Scott Speed and Nelson Piquet Jr. as the most recent former F1 drivers to move to America's most popular motorsports series.

    Driver Kevin Harvick walks through the garage area before practice for Sunday's Daytona 500 NASCAR auto race at Daytona International Speedway in Daytona Beach, Fla., Wednesday, Feb. 16, 2011. Asked to slide into Dale Earnhardt's car days after his death, Harvick felt uneasy about replacing the Intimidator. Now, a decade after Earnhardt's fatal crash at Daytona, Harvick has embraced his role and was comfortable enough to deliver an emotional speech to his Richard Childress Racing team.
