SpeedTour All-Star Driver Bio – Danny Sullivan

The legendary Danny Sullivan is among the drivers headlining the SpeedTour All-Star Race grid. Proven to be one of the best drivers in the world, Sullivan reached the pinnacle of motorsports, making 15 starts in Formula 1 and demonstrating his skill on some of the globe’s most demanding circuits. However, it was INDYCAR where his name was forever etched in the record books when he won on the highest stage in the 1985 Indianapolis 500. Sullivan’s “spin and win” spectacular remains one of the most famous moments in the history of the 100-plus year old competition. With an impressive 172 starts across CART and Champ Car, Sullivan won the 1988 CART Championship.

 

Beyond open-wheel racing, Sullivan proved his versatility with a Rolex 24 at Daytona victory (1998, GT1 class) and a podium finish at the grueling 24 Hours of Le Mans (1994, 3rd-place overall and 2nd in LM GT1 class). An 11-time IROC starter, Sullivan once again proved to be among the best drivers in motorsports, winning the 1989 IROC race at the challenging Nazareth Speedway.
