About Michael McDowell
Michael McDowell has been on a race track almost his entire life. At the early age of three, when most kids were learning to ride a tricycle, McDowell began competing in bicycle motocross (BMX) events. At eight years old, he moved up to four wheels and started kart racing, traveling the country for the next 10 years – along the way winning 18 consecutive feature races, a World Karting Association championship and back-to-back International Kart Federation championships. In 2021 Michael won the Daytona 500.
Michael and his wife are blessed with four kids. Make sure you follow Michael on Twitter and Instagram at @Mc_Driver and go to his website at mmcdowell.com.
