The 2024 NASCAR Cup season was really special for Trackhouse Racing’s Daniel Suarez. He had a solid year behind the wheel with the No:99 team and outside the track his life changed a lot as well. The Mexican American racer got married to his long-time girlfriend Julia Piquet, the daughter of four-times F1 world champion Nelson Piquet.
Marrying into a racing family changed the whole dynamic of Daniel Suarez’s life and it gave him some new perspectives of life. In a recent interview the Trackhouse racer admitted that his wife loves racing more than he does, while he was more into competing. Julia Piquet is really interested watching all types of racing.

It’s been amazing really, it’s been very very good. She’s a huge fan of racing. Sometimes I believe she loves racing more than me. I love competing very very bad but she loves racing. She likes watching everything.
Daniel Suarez said via Frontstretch.
Further talking about the point, Daniel Suarez pointed out that him growing up working on the cars unlike his wife might be reason for the difference in the love for racing. Piquet, being from the racing family, grew up around the race track and it helped to build her passion for racing.
She grew up doing this, I didn’t grow up racing. I grew up working on cars, she grew up on the racetrack with her dad and her brothers.
Daniel Suarez added.
Daniel Suarez believes he is really fortunate to marry Julia Piquet
In the same interview, Daniel Suarez asserted that he is really fortunate about having Julia Piquet in his life. He further stated that Piquet 100% understands what it takes for him to fight for success in NASCAR and she fully supports his efforts.
I’m really fortunate to have her in my life and to have somebody who really really truly understands racing and what it takes to do this 100% because in NASCAR if you’re not all in, it’s not going to work. She knows I have to be all in and she supports me.
Daniel Suarez said.
The comments from Daniel Suarez shows how much he cherishes the support from his wife and how much having the right partner help the drivers thrive in the sport. It would be interesting see how Suarez would perform in the 2025 season, with more Trackhouse development drivers eying his Cup seat.
