Connor Bell is a Canadian professional stock car racing driver. He competes part-time in the NASCAR Canada Series, driving the No. 3 Chevrolet for Ed Hakonson Racing.
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 ran 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 Bell's second NASCAR Canada start, he delivered another standout performance at the Weathertech 200 on August 31 at Canadian Tire Motorsports Park. After qualifying 11th, 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 2nd place.
