List of NASCAR race wins by Tony Stewart
is an American semi-retired professional race car driver who won three Drivers' Championships in the NASCAR Cup Series. He made his NASCAR debut in the Busch Series with the Ranier-Walsh Racing team in 1996 before moving to the Labonte Motorsports squad for part of the 1997 season. Following this, Stewart moved to the Joe Gibbs Racing team for the remainder of the season and 1998. Stewart moved to the higher-tier Cup Series with JGR in 1999, winning that season's Rookie of the Year for finishing fourth in the Drivers' Championship with three race victories. He won six races in the 2000 season, more than any other driver that year. This was followed by another three race wins each in 2001 and his first championship winning season in 2002. Stewart won twice each in the 2003 and 2004 seasons, and took his second drivers' championship with five victories in 2005.
The following year, he won five more races despite not qualifying for the season-ending Chase for the Nextel Cup. Stewart's final victory for JGR came at the 2008 AMP Energy 500 at Talladega Superspeedway. He joined Stewart-Haas Racing as a driver-owner in 2009. Stewart finished sixth in the final points standings with four victories, but fell to seventh with two wins in 2010. In the 2011 season, he won five races in the Chase for the Sprint Cup to win his third drivers' championship on a tiebreak with Roush Fenway Racing driver Carl Edwards, who won once. The achievement made Stewart the first Cup Series driver-owner champion since Alan Kulwicki in 1992. This was followed by three victories in 2012 and one in 2013. The 2014 and 2015 seasons were the only two in the Cup Series in which Stewart did not register a race victory. His final win in NASCAR came at the 16th round of the 2016 season in the Toyota/Save Mart 350 at Sonoma Raceway.
In all, Stewart won a total of 62 NASCAR races, 49 of which were in the Cup Series. Stewart also won 11 races in the Busch Series and 2 in the Craftsman Truck Series. The majority of his race victories were for JGR with 38; he also won 16 races with SHR, 4 for Kevin Harvick Incorporated, 2 for Andy Petree Racing and 1 each for Hendrick Motorsports and Richard Childress Racing., Stewart ranks 15th on the all-time in the Cup Series wins list with 49, and 15th overall in all 3 of NASCAR's national series with 62. His most successful circuit was Daytona International Speedway, where he won 11 times. Stewart's largest margin of victory was at the 2006 Banquet 400 at Kansas Speedway, a race where he finished 12.422 ahead of the second-placed Casey Mears of Chip Ganassi Racing, and the smallest margin of victory was at the 2011 DRIVE4COPD 300 at Daytona, where he beat his KHI teammate Clint Bowyer by 0.007 seconds.
