Busch to drive Formula 1?

Posted: Saturday May 17, 2008 08:51AM ET

Kyle Busch will test a Formula One car with Toyota later this year in Japan. As teams get ready for Saturday's Sprint All-Star Challenge, Busch said Formula One is something that appeals to him, but not on the near horizon. "I'm planning on retiring at 30 and going Formula One racing," the 23-year-old Busch said at Lowe's Motor Speedway. He also reveled his plan to drive an F1 car for the first time at the end of this year when he goes to Japan to do NASCAR exhibition runs for Toyota.

He must have been joking. No way is he going to retire at 30.

He won the pole for the All Star race.....who is going to stop this train?

Report Offensive Comment

No way! His ears wouldn't fit down into the cockpit!! Or, other teams may claim theay are an unfair aero device...

You would think Busch would stick around to make the case for the best driver ever in Nascar. He is all talk though. I doubt he would ever switch to F1, Toyos are not competitive in F1 its Mercedes and Ferrari over there.

Why wait Kyle? Just leave now.

"No way! His ears wouldn't fit down into the cockpit!! "

They would just bind them behind his head and use them as stop chute like drag racing.

Report Offensive Comment

he isn't even the best road course racer in NASCAR. If he beats Montoya, Gordon, or Stewart at either Watkins Glen or Sears Point then maybe. There is a reason Gordon didn't make the switch when he had the chance.

Report Offensive Comment

he wont last long tearing up those very expensive open wheeled machines.

Sounds like a publicity stunt to me. Those F1 drivers wouldn't take kindly to Kyle and his attitude.

Report Offensive Comment

I wouldn't worry about the F1 drivers, aren't they all the size of jockeys but with deeper voices?

I guess all the earnhardt fans truly are butthurt! WWWAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!11!!!!!! Seriously, reporting comments that are dissenting to your personal view is quite fascist. But then again what could I expect from the NASCAR demographic that bush suckered with one issue politics. Oh, also has anyone noticed that Hillary has only one states that are inbred and racist by default! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!

That's just outstanding Hillary, you support two losers. And since you want to nitpick my grammatical errors, maybe you could describe string theory, or the fibonacci sequence for me. Better yet, why don't you enlighten us all as to why Budweiser really is the "King of Beers" since that is probably more your speed.
