Andretti has 42 race victories, the most in the CART era and fourth-most of all time. After retiring from active racing, Andretti has owned Andretti Autosport, a team that has won four IndyCar Series championships and five Indianapolis 500 races.

Two years after his father, legendary racecar driver Mario Andretti, clinched the 1978 World Championship, Michael began his own racing career. He initially competed in Formula Ford and claimed victory in the 1982 SCCA Super Vee Championship with a Ralt RT5. Afterward, he raced in Formula Atlantic in 1983 and had his debut at Le Mans in the same year, finishing third in that race.

In 1991, he had a banner year, finishing second in the Indianapolis 500 before winning the Champ Car World Series. Michael has also raced as part of McLaren’s Formula One team.

After racing in the 2003 Indianapolis 500, he retired from full-time IndyCar racing and bought into “Team Green” which was run by Kim and Barry Green in CART. It became Andretti Green Racing and, for 2003, the team moved to the Indy Racing League IndyCar Series. The team has won the IndyCar title on multiple occasions with Tony Kanaan in 2004, Dan Wheldon in 2005, Dario Franchitti in 2007 and Ryan Hunter-Reay in 2012.

Overall, the Andretti Autosport team boasts a highly impressive track record of over 200 total race wins, four IndyCar Series championships, three Indy Lights titles, one Indy Pro 2000 and one USF2000 championship, alongside five Indy 500 victories.
