Connor Bell (born July 30, 2005) is a Canadian professional stock car racing driver. He competes full-time in the NASCAR Canada Series, driving the Nos. 3/8 Chevrolet for Ed Hakonson Racing.

Racing career

Bell spent time in karting, and has also competed in the Super Production Challenge Series and in Radicals at tracks such as Sebring and Toronto Indy.[1] In 2025, he made his NASCAR Canada Series debut at Calabogie Motorsports Park, a track where he has run hundreds of laps in testing.[1][2] Bell was the fastest in final practice for the race by 0.004 seconds[3] and qualified fifth for the race.[4] In the series' debut at the track, Bell scored the win, rebounding from an earlier speeding penalty and holding off Alex Guenette on the final lap.[5]

In just his second NASCAR Canada start, Bell delivered another standout performance in the WeatherTech 200 on August 31 at Canadian Tire Motorsports Park. After qualifying eleventh, Bell advanced through the field despite mechanical issues that left him without a clutch pedal. In dramatic fashion, he pulled off a last-corner pass to secure second place.[6] Bell became the first driver in NASCAR Canada Series history to reach the podium in each of his first two career starts.
