🇺🇸 Clint Bowyer

Clint Bowyer is an established professional racing in national single-class stock car championships in the United States. He spent the bulk of his career in NASCAR Xfinity, where he was a full-season regular for JR Motorsports from 2004 to 2016, and also competed in NASCAR Cup Series for three seasons starting in 2018. His rating of 6,206 places him among active drivers at a level where he can run competitively against strong professional fields but typically finishes behind the elite tier.[1]

Bowyer took the 2008 NASCAR Xfinity championship and recorded eight wins in the series across 181 starts, along with 38 podiums overall in Xfinity racing. In NASCAR Cup Series he added two wins from 117 starts, with 13 podiums. He is primarily an oval-track racer; 176 of his 181 Xfinity starts came on ovals, and 113 of 117 Cup starts were on ovals. His career totals span 302 starts and 10 wins across all series. Richard Childress Racing fielded him for the majority of that work, 166 starts in total.[2]

Against the drivers he has raced most regularly, Bowyer ran closely matched with Kyle Busch, an established professional and multiple series champion who has far exceeded him in series starts, but usually finished behind Kevin Harvick, also an established professional. He has beaten elite professionals including Denny Hamlin multiple times and Christopher Bell on 26 occasions, though these came in fields where finishing position reflects the wider grid as much as direct comparison. He remains active in stock car racing.
