Graham Rahal grew up attending racetracks around the world with his father, 1986 Indianapolis 500 winner Bobby Rahal. He cut his teeth in karting and moved up the formula ranks. In 2008, a victory at St. Petersburg -- in his IndyCar Series debut -- made him the youngest winner in major open-wheel racing history.
Rahal graduated from New Albany (Ohio) High School with a 3.8 GPA in 2007 despite missing more than 50 days of school his senior year because of racing. He likes to work on cars, restoring a 1964 Mini Cooper for his senior class project.
Rahal is an avid Ohio State University football fan, and plays sports for fun. Though he trains for racing, guilty pleasures are ice cream and white chocolate mocha drinks.
