Timeline
Vickers ran three more races that season; his best finish being 25th at North Carolina.
Brian Lee Vickers (born October 24, 1983) is an American professional stock car and sports car racing driver.
He last drove the No. 14 Chevrolet SS for Stewart-Haas Racing as an interim driver in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series for the injured Tony Stewart.
Vickers began racing go-karts in 1994.
Over the next three years, he won eighty races in the World Karting Association, and won three championships, including the 1995 championship against three-time winner Mike Schwartz.
In 1998, he moved to the Allison Legacy Series, and won five races during the course of the season.
After competing in the NASCAR Dodge Weekly Racing Series in 1999, he moved to USAR ProCup; and was named Rookie of the Year.
He won two races in 2000.
In 2001, he won five more races and finished second in points.
Vickers made his Busch Series debut in the 2001 GNC Live Well 250 at Milwaukee in the No. 29 car; owned by his father Clyde Vickers' BLV Motorsports team.
He qualified thirtieth and finished thirty-seventh after a crash.
In 2002, Vickers began running the Busch Series in his father's No. 40 Dodge Intrepid.
He drove in twenty-one races, competing for Rookie of the Year honors; his best finish was seventh in the Hardee's 250 at Richmond, his only top ten of the season on his way to finishing thirtieth in series points.
After a lack of funding for his family-owned team, Vickers was hired to replace Ricky Hendrick in the No. 5 GMAC-sponsored Chevrolet owned by Hendrick Motorsports.
He won the 2003 NASCAR Busch Series championship driving for Hendrick Motorsports.
Vickers was also among the first series of full-time drivers for Toyota after the manufacturer first entered the Sprint Cup Series.
In 2003, Vickers won three races and the championship by fourteen points over David Green.
Vickers became the then-youngest champion in Busch Series history at only 20 years old.
Vickers made his Cup debut in the 2003 UAW-GM Quality 500 at Charlotte; qualifying 20th and finishing 33rd in the No. 60 Haas Automation-sponsored Chevy.
He ran four more races that season in Hendrick's No. 25 UAW/Delphi-sponsored Chevy; qualifying in the Top 5 each time, but posting only one Top 20 finish.
In 2004, Vickers ran the No. 25 in the Cup Series full-time carrying sponsorships from Ditech and GMAC.
In 2005, Vickers won the Nextel Open exhibition race.
Rather than make a move to go around Bliss, Vickers ran into the back of the No. 0, spinning him out.
That qualified him for the annual Nextel All-Star Challenge, in which he finished third.
Vickers finished the year seventeenth in Cup points with ten top tens including career runs at the Pocono 500 and the Coca-Cola 600.
He also returned to the Busch Series in a limited capacity in 2005, and finished third at Watkins Glen in the No. 5. He drove five other races in the No. 57.
Vickers started out the 2006 season with a seventh-place finish in the Daytona 500.
He went on to finish fifteenth in points with nine top tens, including a win at Talladega.
However, the season was marred by conflicts within Hendrick Motorsports.
Fortunately for Vickers, Jimmie Johnson ended up winning the 2006 NEXTEL Cup Series Championship at Homestead-Miami Speedway leaving that race at Talladega behind.
On June 25, Vickers announced that he would leave Hendrick and drive for the new Team Red Bull in 2007.
Going down the backstretch, Johnson attempted to pass Dale Jr. on the inside and Vickers tried to follow Jimmie and bump draft him past Earnhardt.
Unfourtunately, Vickers was too late to follow Johnson to the inside and instead hooked Jimmie in the right rear causing Johnson to turn right into Dale Jr. and the two went spinning down to the infield to bring out the caution.
Vickers went on to score his first victory.
Johnson was livid with Vickers, and both he and his crew chief Chad Knaus questioned Vickers' motives with the bump, leading Knaus to state that Vickers had "run out of talent" prior to wrecking his teammate.
Vickers' career has been marred by a series of health issues since 2010 that have included blood clots and heart problems.
