🇲🇽 Daniel Suárez

Daniel Suárez is an established professional competing full-time in the NASCAR Cup Series for Spire Motorsports, driving the No. 7 Chevrolet. He has raced in stock car racing across multiple national series since 2014, with 341 Cup starts forming the bulk of his career alongside 89 starts in NASCAR Xfinity and further appearances in the Truck Series. His primary racing has been on ovals, though he regularly competes on the series' road and street courses as well.[1]

Suárez won the 2016 NASCAR Xfinity championship with Joe Gibbs Racing, becoming the first foreign-born driver to win a major NASCAR national series title. In the Cup Series, where he has competed since 2018, he has four wins and 17 podiums across 341 starts, establishing himself as a regular mid-field competitor. His sustained presence over nine seasons at the highest level places him among the enduring professionals in the field. Outside his primary series, he took a single win in NASCAR Truck competition and one podium finish in ARCA Menards racing, with a one-off start in American Endurance Racing's multiclass competition in 2020.[2]

In a field of elite professionals including 2025 Cup champion Denny Hamlin and 2024 champion Christopher Bell, both of whom Suárez has raced regularly over his career, he holds his own as an established competitor. His consistent head-to-head record against fellow established professionals such as Erik Jones and 2022 champion Ross Chastain reflects the competitive tier at which he operates. At 341 Cup starts, his longevity and stability have made him one of the grid's fixture drivers across nearly a decade of full-time competition at NASCAR's top level.
