John Mickel (born 28 January 1971) is a British professional stock car racing driver and commentator.

[citation needed] Mickel, a second-generation driver, began racing at the age of ten in Ministox and won his first championship two years later.

The next season, he ran the final five races of the Truck Series schedule leasing owner's points and equipment from the No.

During preseason testing at Daytona International Speedway, Speed had reported that Mickel would instead begin the season in the No.

63 MB Motorsports truck, and the sponsorship he brought would allow him and the team to run the full season,[citation needed] but this did not end up happening.

On 31 January 2010, Mickel won the inaugural ASA Transcontinental Series Free State 500[2] at Phakisa Freeway near Welkom, South Africa in a Chevrolet Monte Carlo, having qualified fourth for the 207-lap 500-km race.
