Jan Magnussen
Corvette Racing Driver Profile: Jan Magnussen • Car: No. 3 Mobil 1/SiriusXM Chevrolet Corvette C7.R • Co-drivers: Antonio Garcia, Mike Rockenfeller (Daytona, Sebring, Le Mans) • Birthdate: July 4, 1973 • Birthplace: Roskilde, Denmark • Residence: Roskilde, Denmark • Family: Wife Christina, sons Kevin and Luca, daughter Millie • Notable: Two-time ALMS champion (2008 GT1, 2013 GT); 2017 and 2018 IMSA WeatherTech GTLM Champion; 24 Hours of Le Mans winner – 2004-06, 2009 (GTS/GT1); Rolex 24 At Daytona winner – 2015 (GTLM); Sebring 12 Hours winner – 2006, 2008-09 (GT1), 2015, 2017 (GTLM); former Formula 1 driver; voted ALMS "Most Popular Driver" in 2001, 2003, 2011 and 2013 • Website: janmagnussen.com • Twitter: @janmagnussen Getting to Know You One of motorsports’ most popular and experienced pilots, Jan Magnussen’s 15th season with Corvette Racing was another championship-winning one. He teamed with Antonio Garcia for consecutive IMSA GTLM Driver Championships – the Dane’s third in his career with Corvette Racing and second straight with his long-time teammate. A true legend in his native Denmark, Magnussen has won races and titles in machines ranging from single-seaters to touring cars around the world. His daredevil driving style and take-no-prisoners mentality make him just as popular with Corvette Nation. Of Magnussen’s 35 wins with Corvette Racing, 13 have come with Garcia including Sebring, COTA and VIR in 2017. The pairing won overall in 2016 at VIR. Magnussen, a former F1 driver, joined Corvette Racing for long-distance events in 2004, and became a full-season driver in 2007. He was ALMS GT1 co-champion with Johnny O'Connell in 2008, and captured the GT championship with Garcia in 2013.
