NASCAR driver Alex Bowman announced his retirement from full-time racing following the 2027 season. Bowman, 33, has battled vertigo and other health issues, including a concussion and back injury, throughout his career.
Career Highlights
Bowman has eight Cup Series wins and seven playoff appearances in his 12-year career. His most recent victory came in the Chicago street race in 2024. He has also had three consecutive top-six finishes at the Daytona 500 from 2023-25.
