TEAM BIO
Newman/Haas Racing was formed when actor Paul Newman and long-time racer Carl Haas, competitors in the Can Am Series, each began looking to Champ Car racing in 1982. The two decided to join forces for 1983, with Mario Andretti as the team’s driver.

Since then, the team has won 97 Champ Car races, as well as Mario Andretti’s 1984 series title, Michael Andretti’s 1991 championship, Nigel Mansell’s 1993 series crown, Cristiano da Matta’s 2002 title and the 2004, 2005 and 2006 championships with Sebastien Bourdais. Under the revised name of Newman/Haas/Lanigan Racing, the team will begin their 25th season of Champ Car competition in 2007 and will attempt to add to the seven championships, 97 race wins and 100 pole positions earned by Newman/Haas Racing.
