Description

Sir Scott Ronald Glyndwr Dixon KNZM (born 22 July 1980) is a New Zealand racing driver who races the No. 9 Chip Ganassi Racing (CGR) Dallara DW12-Honda car in the IndyCar Series. He has won the IndyCar Series championship six times, in 2003, 2008, 2013, 2015, 2018 and 2020, and he won the 2008 Indianapolis 500 with CGR. Dixon is a three-time winner of the 24 Hours of Daytona, with CGR in 2006 and 2015 and in 2020 with Wayne Taylor Racing. He has also won the Petit Le Mans twice.

Dixon began karting at age seven and won thirty major karting titles in his age group across Australia and New Zealand. At the age of thirteen, he progressed to car racing, winning the 1994 New Zealand Formula Vee Championship, the 1996 New Zealand Formula Ford Class II Championship, the 1998 Australian Drivers' Championship and the 2000 Indy Lights. He debuted in Championship Auto Racing Teams (CART) in 2001 with the PacWest Racing team and won his first major open-wheel race in his third series start before joining CGR in 2002 when PacWest folded due to financial difficulties. Dixon and CGR moved to the IndyCar Series in 2003, winning the title in his debut season with three victories. Following a winless 2004 season, he won one race in the 2005, finished fourth in the 2006 with two victories, and finished second to Dario Franchitti in 2007 with four wins. Dixon won his second IndyCar championship in 2008, with five victories (including the Indianapolis 500).
