Nicols Steele (born October 22, 1989 in Austin, Texas, USA) is an American racing driver known for his career in the F1RWRS. His best finish to date is a second place finish at the 2014 Monegasque, Belgian and Italian races. He also holds the dubious distinction of being the last driver to date to get disqualified at a race at the 2011 F1RWRS New South Wales Grand Prix.
F1RWRS Career
Steele started his career with a bang by scoring in his debut race, a fifth position. However, he only started two more races, not qualfying for the rest of them. Steele was disqualified at Eastern Creek for careless driving after taking out John Zimmer and Hagane Shizuka (both recovered). Steele was fired after the season. He then signed for Pacchia-Coswojuddhartlambo, but that didn't last too long after the team only qualified for one race. He signed with Team Calinetic and raced three times.
For 2013 Steele resigned with Calinetic but that didn't last long as he left the team after two races due to his teammate, David Koczo, being uncompetitive in pre-qualifying, while Steele nearly topped both charts. He signed with Kahama for the rest of the season, and has been resigned for 2014.
His rivalry with former teammate Jari Kekkonen was at it's peak in 2012 when the two were constantly bickering between each other, and trash talking. The rivalry has cooled but the two are not good friends.
His two podium positions early in the 2014 season have given him lots of interest in the paddock, but his handling of his engine failure in Adelaide gave him the nickname of "a complete James Allen". He did, manage two second podiums at Belgium and Italy later that year. He had a good position in the drivers' championship, but the car's unreliability cost him as he fell down the standings from 3rd. Despite this, Steele remained optimistic of the teams' potential in the near future, and signed a contract for the 2015 season.
