See discussion / talk section for links to legal documents bearing his name.--> (born August 4, 1971) is an American stock car racing executive and former professional [[stock car racing]] driver who currently serves as the vice chairman of [[Hendrick Motorsports]]. He raced full-time from 1993 to 2015, driving the No. 24 [[Chevrolet]] for Hendrick Motorsports in the former NASCAR Winston Cup Series and Sprint Cup Series (now called [[NASCAR Cup Series]]), and also served as a substitute driver for [[Dale Earnhardt Jr.]] in the No. 88 Chevrolet for Hendrick Motorsports in select races during the 2016 season.<ref>{{cite magazine|url=https://www.nascarhall.com/hall-of-famers/inductees/jeff-gordon|title=Jeff Gordon Class of 2019 Inductee|magazine=[[NASCAR Hall of Fame]]|access-date=June 18, 2020|archive-date=June 18, 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200618205318/https://www.nascarhall.com/hall-of-famers/inductees/jeff-gordon|url-status=live}}</ref> He is widely regarded as one of the greatest and most influential drivers in [[NASCAR]] history, helping the sport reach mainstream popularity in the 1990s and 2000s.
Gordon started his professional racing career in the [[Busch Series]] with Hugh Connerty Racing, followed by [[Bill Davis Racing]], winning three races, and began racing full-time in the [[NASCAR Winston Cup]] Series for Hendrick Motorsports in 1993. He is a four-time [[List of NASCAR Cup Series champions|Cup Series champion]], having won the title in [[1995 NASCAR Winston Cup Series|1995]], [[1997 NASCAR Winston Cup Series|1997]], [[1998 NASCAR Winston Cup Series|1998]], and [[2001 NASCAR Winston Cup Series|2001]]. He also won the [[Daytona 500]] three times in [[1997 Daytona 500|1997]], [[1999 Daytona 500|1999]], and [[2005 Daytona 500|2005]].

He is third on the all-time Cup wins list with [[List of NASCAR race wins by Jeff Gordon|93 career wins]], while having the record for the most wins in NASCAR's modern era (1972–present) and the most wins in one modern era season, with thirteen during the [[1998 NASCAR Winston Cup Series]]. Gordon's 81 [[pole position]]s led all active drivers and are third all-time, and also a modern era record; Gordon won at least one pole in 23 consecutive seasons, making this a NASCAR record. Other records include the most [[restrictor plate]] track wins with twelve and the most road course wins with nine,<ref>{{cite magazine|url=https://axaltaracing.com/2019/01/the-records-that-helped-put-jeff-gordon-in-the-nascar-hall-of-fame/|title=The records that helped put Jeff Gordon in the NASCAR Hall of Fame|magazine=[[Axalta]]|access-date=June 12, 2020|archive-date=June 28, 2024|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240628071100/https://axaltaracing.com/2019/01/the-records-that-helped-put-jeff-gordon-in-the-nascar-hall-of-fame/|url-status=live}}</ref> and he was the active "[[Iron man (sports streak)|iron man]]" leader for consecutive races participated in with 797 through the 2015 season.<ref name="All-Time Starts">{{cite web|url=http://www.jayski.com/news/stats/story/_/page/NASCAR-Sprint-Cup-Series-Alltime-Starts|title=Sprint Cup Series All-Time Starts|work=[[Jayski's Silly Season Site]]|access-date=September 27, 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170210013350/http://www.jayski.com/news/stats/story/_/page/NASCAR-Sprint-Cup-Series-Alltime-Starts|archive-date=February 10, 2017|url-status=dead}}</ref>

====Early career (1992–1994)====
In 1992, [[Roush Racing]] owner [[Jack Roush]] planned to sign Gordon, but Gordon's stepfather John Bickford had insisted that Roush hire Ray Evernham; due to Roush's policy of hiring his own crew chiefs, Bickford declined.<ref>{{cite web|last=Jensen|first=Tom|url=http://www.foxsports.com/nascar/shake-and-bake/jeff-gordon-jack-roush-inside-story-of-failed-attempt-to-hire-racing-phenom-012315|title=Inside story: Jack Roush's failed attempt to hire Jeff Gordon|work=[[Foxsports.com]]|date=January 23, 2015|access-date=January 23, 2015|archive-date=January 24, 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150124214858/https://www.foxsports.com/nascar/shake-and-bake/jeff-gordon-jack-roush-inside-story-of-failed-attempt-to-hire-racing-phenom-012315|url-status=live}}</ref> Later in the year, Rick Hendrick watched Gordon race in a Busch Series event at [[Atlanta Motor Speedway]], and Gordon joined [[Hendrick Motorsports]] two days later.<ref name="Gordon hears the roar">{{cite news|last=Siano|first=Joseph|url=https://www.nytimes.com/1994/08/08/sports/auto-racing-gordon-hears-the-roar-of-the-hometown-fans.html?ref=jeffgordon|title=Gordon Hears the Roar of the Hometown Fans|newspaper=[[The New York Times]]|date=August 8, 1994|access-date=July 27, 2013|archive-date=March 8, 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160308075843/http://www.nytimes.com/1994/08/08/sports/auto-racing-gordon-hears-the-roar-of-the-hometown-fans.html?ref=jeffgordon|url-status=live}}</ref> Gordon made his Winston Cup debut in the season-ending race, the [[1992 Hooters 500|Hooters 500]] at Atlanta, finishing 31st after a crash.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.racing-reference.info/race/1992_Hooters_500/W|title=1992 Hooters 500|work=Racing-Reference|access-date=September 2, 2013|archive-date=July 3, 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220703144212/https://www.racing-reference.info/race-results/1992_Hooters_500/W/|url-status=live}}</ref>
The following year, Gordon began competing full-time in the Winston Cup Series, driving the No. 24 car for Hendrick. He was originally supposed to race the No. 46, but complications with licensing related to [[Days of Thunder]] forced Gordon to the 24.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Albert |first1=Zack |title=Driver by Number: Connections and success with every car number |url=https://www.nascar.com/gallery/driver-by-number-connections-and-success-with-every-car-number/#photo-25 |website=NASCAR.com |access-date=May 11, 2020 |date=January 2, 2020 |archive-date=April 25, 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200425095812/https://www.nascar.com/gallery/driver-by-number-connections-and-success-with-every-car-number/#photo-25 |url-status=live }}</ref> He opened the season with a win in the [[Gatorade Twin 125's]] race,<ref name="85 wins">{{cite web|last=Rodman|first=Dave|url=http://www.nascar.com/en_us/news-media/articles/2011/09/06/jgordon-85-victories-highlights.html|title=Highlights on the road to 85 Cup Series victories|publisher=[[NASCAR]]|date=September 6, 2011|access-date=July 1, 2013|archive-date=November 19, 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151119144058/http://www.nascar.com/en_us/news-media/articles/2011/09/06/jgordon-85-victories-highlights.html|url-status=dead}}</ref> while also recording his first-career [[pole position]] at the fall Charlotte race,<ref>{{cite web|url=http://racing-reference.info/race/1993_Mello_Yello_500/W|title=1993 Mello Yello 500|work=Racing-Reference|access-date=August 2, 2015|archive-date=September 6, 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150906074648/http://racing-reference.info/race/1993_Mello_Yello_500/W|url-status=live}}</ref> and concluded 1993 with a fourteenth-place points finish and the Rookie of the Year Award.<ref name="GordonOnline"/> Gordon's early success in the sport reshaped the paradigm and eventually gave younger drivers an opportunity to compete in NASCAR.

In 1995, Gordon won his first Winston Cup Series championship. Despite a rough start to the season in the [[1995 Daytona 500|Daytona 500]], he won three of the following six races at Rockingham, Atlanta and Bristol, while winning the pole at Rockingham, Richmond, Darlington and North Wilkesboro in that timespan.

{{For|further information|Iron man (sports streak)}}
Since making his Cup Series debut in the [[1992 Hooters 500|Hooters 500]] at [[Atlanta Motor Speedway]] on November 15, 1992, Gordon never missed a race spanning over 24 consecutive seasons. With 797 starts as of the [[2015 Ford EcoBoost 400]], Gordon is ninth among all-time Cup Series drivers with the most starts overall.<ref name="All-Time Starts" />
In 2007, Gordon asked part-time driver [[Mark Martin]] if he could be on standby for him to take over the No. 24 car, should he have needed to miss a race to witness the birth of his first child. Daughter Ella Sofia Gordon was born on Wednesday, June 20 in [[New York City]]; Gordon traveled to [[Sonoma, California]] later that week to compete in the [[2007 Toyota/Save Mart 350|Toyota Save/Mart 350]] on June 24. In 2010, Gordon similarly asked [[road course ringer]] Scott Pruett to be on standby for him at [[2010 Heluva Good! Sour Cream Dips at the Glen|Watkins Glen]] due to the impending birth of his second child.<ref name="Pruett" /> Although Gordon let Pruett run a couple of practice laps in Gordon's car, Gordon was able to start and complete the race without Pruett's assistance. Son Leo Benjamin Gordon was born less than a day after the race's conclusion. In 2014, Gordon had [[Regan Smith (racing driver)|Regan Smith]] on standby for the [[2014 Coca-Cola 600|Coca-Cola 600]], as Gordon suffered from back spasms during qualifying and practice. Gordon was able to start and complete the race as scheduled.<ref name="Gordon proves his toughness">{{cite magazine|last=Pockrass|first=Bob|url=http://www.sportingnews.com/nascar/story/2014-05-26/jeff-gordon-charlotte-results-coca-cola-600-finish-back-injury-hendrick-motorsports-dover|title=Jeff Gordon proves his toughness in Coca-Cola 600|magazine=[[Sporting News]]|date=May 26, 2014|access-date=May 29, 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150924130032/http://www.sportingnews.com/nascar/story/2014-05-26/jeff-gordon-charlotte-results-coca-cola-600-finish-back-injury-hendrick-motorsports-dover|archive-date=September 24, 2015|url-status=dead}}</ref>
