Geoff Brabham is an Australian racing driver. Brabham spent the majority of his racing career in the United States. He raced successfully in CART early in his career, finishing 8th in 1982, 1984 and 1987 with nine podiums. In ten appearances in the Indianapolis 500, he had a best result of fourth in 1983 and fifth in 1981. His greatest source of success was in various forms of sports cars, winning four IMSA GTP titles when racing for Nissan, and one Can-Am championship. Geoff Brabham also won the 1993 24 Hours of Le Mans driving one of the factory Peugeot 905 alongside French drivers Eric H�lary and Christophe Bouchut. His younger brother David Brabham had won the GT class in the race driving a Jaguar XJ220 for Tom Walkinshaw Racing, but the team was later disqualified for technical infringements. Geoff Brabham became just the third Australian driver to win Le Mans after Bernard Rubin and Vern Schuppan in 1983. Brabham took two race victories in the International Race of Champions stock car series, both at Michigan. He made his only NASCAR Winston Cup Series start at the first ever Brickyard 400 at Indianapolis in 1994, driving for Michael Kranefuss.
