Exactly, what's the point in him staying in trucks or even Nationwide? He wants to see if he likes Nascar so why not jump to the Cup level immediately? He has nothing to lose from his standpoint, if he likes it great, if not then he can go back to Europe and race there.

Kimi might be rich as balls, but I doubt even he will want to pony for even a Sprint Cup race. Plus I'd bet he likes it more in the junior series because there's less media to deal with.

The point is to get some seat time in the lower level series to get acclimated to a whole new type of car and track. To just jump into a Cup car is to risk the fate of Dario Franchitti.

I can tell you for sure that Kimi could care less about that. He's trying to see if NASCAR is a place where he can just race and not have to deal with media bull**** and all that. He had that in rally, but I bet he's leaving that because he thinks he's run out of luck with all the crashing he's done. Or maybe he just misses the wheel to wheel, too.
