Christopher Windom (born December 24, 1990) is an American professional racing driver. Windom was the seventh driver to complete a United States Auto Club (USAC) Triple Crown by winning titles in sprint cars, midget cars, and Silver Crown.

Open Wheel USAC Racing

Windom won the 2017 USAC National Sprint Car Championship, the 2016 USAC Silver Crown Championship, and the 2020 National Midget Car championship.[1] He is also a two time Indiana Sprint Week (2011, 2018) & Eastern Storm (2017, 2018) champion, and a two time winner of the Little 500 (2011, 2015).

Stock Car Racing

Windom also participates in stock car racing, making seven starts from 2011 to 2015 in the ARCA Racing Series and three starts in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series in 2017 for MB Motorsports and one in 2018 for DGR-Crosley with a best finish of 14th at Eldora Speedway. In 2021, he joined Rick Ware Racing for his NASCAR Cup Series debut at Bristol Motor Speedway's dirt event, where he finished 33rd after suffering an engine failure.[2][3]

Indy Lights Racing

On March 27, 2018, it was announced that Windom would make his Indy Lights debut driving for Belardi Auto Racing in the Freedom 100 at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway with support from Jonathan Byrd's Racing, the same group that supported fellow sprint car driver Bryan Clauson venture into Indy Lights and the IndyCar Series.[4] Windom, however, crashed during the first morning testing session on May 21 and the damage to the car forced Windom to withdraw from the Freedom 100.[5]
