Wiki:

BIO:After a childhood in Karting, García began racing cars in Formula Renault Campus in 1997. In 1998, he moved to the new Open Fortuna by Nissan series. The series changed its name to World Series by Nissan in 1999 and in 2000, García was the series champion with Campos Motorsport. This success saw García have a part-time opportunity to race in International Formula 3000 in 2001 and make his sports car debut in FIA GT. In 2002 he returned full time to World Series by Nissan, was a test driver for Minardi, and finished 12th in FIA GT.




In 2003 he moved full-time to the European Touring Car Championship driving a Ravaglia Motorsport BMW to 8th place in points. He improved to 7th place with the same team in 2004. The series became the World Touring Car Championship in 2005 and he finished 9th in points. He made his 24 Hours of Le Mans debut in 2006 but did not participate in any racing full-time. He returned to full-time action in 2007 competing in the Le Mans Series in the Team Modena Aston Martin DBR9, finishing 6th in points. García signed on with the Cheever Racing team in the Rolex Sports Car Series in 2008, but the team struggled with their new Coyote/Fabcar and García only finished 21st in points. He also participated in the 24 Hours of Le Mans in the factory Aston Martin Racing DBR9 which won the GT1 class. He joined Brumos Racing in 2009 to win the 24 Hours of Daytona with teammates David Donohue, Darren Law, and Buddy Rice. He signed on with Corvette Racing to complete the full season of the American Le Mans Series in 2009.
