Max Garcia is a professional single-seater driver competing in Indy NXT for Abel Motorsports. He holds the 2024 USF2000 championship and the 2025 USF Pro 2000 championship, winning nine races across a full season in the latter and establishing himself as a consistent front-runner in national-level open-wheel racing.[1]
Garcia's record shows steady progression through the USF ladder. He raced USF2000 across 2023 and 2024, taking five wins and nine podiums over 22 starts before capturing the 2024 title. He then moved to USF Pro 2000 in 2025, where he dominated with nine wins from seventeen starts and finished on the podium in thirteen of those races. His 2026 move to Indy NXT brought immediate success; he took his first win at Milwaukee and has added two further podiums across seventeen starts to date for Abel Motorsports, a team that has fielded established professionals including Josh Mason.[2]
Garcia races among experienced opposition. He runs closely matched against Max Taylor, a 2024 USF Juniors champion with extensive Indy NXT experience, while consistently beating Carson Etter, a semi-professional regular across the same three series. His strongest scalp is against Enzo Fittipaldi, an established professional and FIA Gold-graded driver who raced Formula 2 and has beaten Garcia six times; Garcia has also finished ahead of Tymek Kucharczyk, an established professional with seventeen Indy NXT starts.
