Four-time NASCAR Cup Series Champion, three-time Daytona 500 winner, four-time Brickyard 400 winner and the list goes on. Jeff Gordon has combined determination, hard work and decades of experience to achieve an unparalleled roster of victories. His fans expect only the best from him and they are rewarded at every turn with Gordon's racing agility that defines the skill of the sport.
Jeff was 5 when he began running laps at a makeshift racetrack that he and his stepfather, John Bickford, converted from a fairground in his hometown of Vallejo, California. Inspired at an early age by John to be the best he could be in everything he did, Jeff embraced racing with a natural talent and true humility.
When Jeff drove his first laps in a stock car, he declared to his parents that this was what he wanted to do for the rest of his life. His desire to race was fueled by gritty determination that has continued solidly through an unparalleled career in racing.
Jeff's list of achievements continues to grow and his enthusiasm for racing has never wavered during a career that already expands a quarter century of winning. From a 13-year-old who set on racing sprint cars in a sport meant for those age 16 and older, to his first career NASCAR Cup Series start at age 21, Jeff has an unmatched history of stellar achievements and a fine-tuned focus on winning.
Jeff's amazing career accomplishments propel him to international recognition as one of the top racecar drivers in the world.
Jeff is not only a winner on the racetrack, but he is also using his personal efforts and resources to be a winner in the lives of others. In 1999, Jeff established The Jeff Gordon Foundation helping children and their families gain their own victories over chronic and often debilitating illnesses.
Now competing in his 17th season as a full-time NASCAR Cup series driver, Jeff is hungrier than ever to achieve the "Drive for Five"!
