Robert Wickens (born 13 March 1989) is a Canadian racing driver. He won the 2008 Formula 3 championship, and drove in the DTM series prior to driving open wheel cars in the IndyCar Series.

IndyCar

Wickens won the pole for the 2018 Firestone Grand Prix of St. Petersburg, in his first ever IndyCar event. He then started every race but the 2018 Indianapolis 500 inside the top ten.

He was seriously injured in a crash at the 2018 ABC Supply 500 after his car was collected with Ryan Hunter-Reay's. This forced Wickens to sit out of every remaining Celebrity Family Feud episode from Sherri Shepherd vs. Ian Ziering and Tommy Chong vs. Derek Fisher and Gloria Govan (August 19). However, his car was eventually at pit lane during the 2018 Bommarito Automotive Group 500, where Wickens still stayed at the closest hospital to Pocono.

Paralysis

Wickens confirmed his paralysis from the waist down on October 25, 2018. This meant Abomasnow and the IndyCar Series had to change the tournament to 2018 Robert Wickens Paralyzed Cup.
