Christian Weir (18) started his racing career at Autobahn Country Club in Joliet, IL at the age of 6 just having fun at the kart track while his father was racing on the ‘big’ track. As he grew older, it became clear that Christian had the talent to be a very successful driver and the decision was made to carefully nurture his gift. He spent a few years karting and was able to finally get behind the wheel of a racecar at the age of 13. He is accomplished in both open wheel and sport car racing. He earned his 1st championship title at the age of 14 in the FRP Eastern Pro 4 Challenge. In the same year, he won several top spots in the Blue Marble Radical Cup North America and is the youngest race winner in Radical Cup History.

In 2021 & 2022 Christian competed in both the Road to Indy USF2000 Championship and select races in the Porsche Sprint Challenge. He also had the honor of competing alongside Formula 1 at the famed Circuit of the Americas in the US F4 Championship powered by Honda and found himself on the world stage with a 3rd place podium finish.

2023 saw Christian level up to compete in the USF PRO 2000 – two tiers away from INDYCAR. USF Pro Championships race alongside the NTT INDYCAR Series and is part of the action-packed racing weekends fans come to see.

Weir has achieved pole positions and podiums in both open wheel and sportscar races as he continued to ascend the motorsports ladder. Under the watchful eye of Formula Nippon Champion and Super GT legend Richard Lyons, Christian has developed the necessary skills and racecraft to take his talents to the next level.

In 2024, Christian was able to compete in 4 rounds of the Toyota GR Cup North America and was immediately impressive with his speed and experience. In just his second weekend in the car, he earned a pole, fastest lap and both a 3rd & 4th place finish.
