Max Garcia is a professional racing driver competing in Indy NXT for Abel Motorsports, a team fielding established professionals. He races single-seater open-wheel cars in the United States, currently in his first season at national championship level; his rating of 4,551 places him as a professional competitor. Garcia won back-to-back national single-seater titles in USF2000, taking the 2024 championship, then stepped up immediately to USF Pro 2000 in 2025 and won that championship as well, taking nine wins and thirteen podiums from seventeen starts.[1]

Garcia came through karting and junior single-seater racing between 2021 and 2024, accumulating five wins in USF2000 before his title year. The progression to USF Pro 2000 was his first step into competitive professional racing; he dominated that series, winning nearly half his races and finishing on the podium in every start but four. He has beaten established professionals on those grids, including Enzo Fittipaldi, who raced Formula 2 and Italian Formula 4 at a higher level, four times across their meetings. His most frequent opponent is Max Taylor, a 2024 USF Juniors champion with experience across multiple national series; Garcia runs closely matched with Taylor and typically finishes ahead of Carson Etter, a semi-professional regular in the same championships.[2]
