Stefan Wilson Siblings: Meet His Brother Justin Wilson

Justin Boyd Wilson was a professional open-wheel racing driver and the older brother of racing driver Stefan Wilson.

Justin Wilson raced in Formula One (F1) in 2003, the Champ Car World Series (CCWS) from 2004 to 2007, and the IndyCar Series from 2008 to 2015. He won the first Formula Palmer Audi (FPA) in 1998, the International Formula 3000 Championship (IF3000) with Nordic Racing in 2001, and co-won the 2012 24 Hours of Daytona for Michael Shank Racing.

Justin Wilson died late in the 2015 season in the ABC Supply 500 at Pocono Raceway after debris from a crashed car struck his helmet. He was the first driver to die as a result of injuries sustained in an IndyCar race since Dan Wheldon in 2011. It is also the most recent fatal accident in IndyCar as of 2023.  His organs were donated to save the lives of five people. A hairpin corner at Snetterton Circuit was named after him, and a memorial fund was established to help his children.

Stefan has made a name for himself in the motorsports industry. After finishing second in the Formula Palmer Audi Championship in 2007, he received the McLaren Autosport BRDC Award for promising British drivers.

He won two races with Andretti Autosport in 2011. Stefan feels as if he is racing for his brother as he is for himself. He wants to be successful in his own career, but he also wants to have a long racing career like Justin.
