Daly competed as a professional race car driver for 17 years before becoming a television motorsports commentator, driving school entrepreneur, and public speaker (www.motorvationllc.com). During that time, he was one of a handful of world-class drivers to compete in all three of the most prestigious races in the world: the Indianapolis 500, the Grand Prix of Monaco, and the Le Mans 24-hour endurance race. Born in Dublin, Ireland, Derek Daly currently resides in the metro Indianapolis area with his wife, Rhonda, and their three children. Mario Andretti is auto racing's definition of Been There, Won That. His professional driving career spanned more than four decades and includes pit-stops as a Formula One driver (1978), an Indy 500 winner (1969), the Daytona 500 (1967), and four CART/USAC open-wheel racing national championships. Andretti has been called Mr. Versatile, known for driving everything from USAC sprint cars on the dirt to IndyCars, sports racing prototypes, and of course F1. He was Newman Haas Racing's first driver when the team was formed in 1982, raced there for 12 seasons, and is considered one of Paul Newman's closest friends.
