Not many have driven a race car better than Mario Andretti.

He won the Indianapolis 500, the Daytona 500, the Formula One World Championship and the Pikes Peak Hillclimb. He won the Indy Car National Championship four times and was a three-time winner at Sebring. He won at virtually every level of motorsports since he arrived in America from his native Italy at age 15. He is a racing icon, considered by many to be the greatest race car driver in the history of the sport.

Mario Andretti took the checkered flag 111 times during his career - a career that stretched five decades. And he was competitive all of those years: He was named Driver of the Year in three different decades (the 60s, 70s, 80s), Driver of the Quarter Century (in the 90s) and the Associated Press named him Driver of the Century in January, 2000.

I don’t have enough time to list all of Andretti’s accomplishments but he truly is a legend. His accomplishments don’t only take place on the track as he’s become a very successful businessman with a winery, a petroleum business and many other ventures. We dive into his incredible career and life and pull out some helpful lessons you can apply to your own life.
