Show Notes

Andre Lafond is a 20 year old Haitian-American Racing Driver currently competing in the U.K. He is the first Haitian American to win a Formula Ford series race in the U.K. As a child he overcame the challenges of ADHD by finding his place in the motorsports world that in turn instilled in him the characteristics of self-control, discipline, and focus that he needed to grow in life. 

Starting in 2018, the New Jersey native has not slowed down. Lafond is an all around athlete active in martial arts, mountain biking, fitness & nutrition. His analytical approach to racing makes him a fierce and fair competitor, on and off the track.

Born five weeks early, Andre spent the first week of life in the ICU and was subsequently diagnosed with ADHD and severe fine motor control challenges. Despite many early childhood setbacks, Andre found his comfort zone amidst the speed and unpredictability of the track. His talent for racing shone through at a very early age - his first word was “wheels.” 

 At just 20-years-old, Andre has solidified his place in the global motorsports world which, in turn, instilled in him the life defining characteristics of self-control, discipline, and focus.
