Donald Scott Goodyear (born December 20, 1959) is a Canadian retired racing driver. He competed in CART Championship cars and the Indy Racing League. Along with Michael Andretti, Goodyear is the only driver to have won the Michigan 500 more than once, in 1992 and 1994. Goodyear also twice finished second in the Indianapolis 500, both times under contentious circumstances.
Goodyear qualified for eleven runnings of the Indianapolis 500, from 1990 to 2001, missing only the 1996 race, which he did not enter. After starting last (33rd position) in the 1992 race, he finished second to Al Unser Jr. by 0.043 seconds. Goodyear could have won the 1995 race, driving with Tasman Motorsports, but after leading 42 laps, he mistakenly passed the pace car on a late, very slow restart. He was penalized to fourteenth place after ignoring the black flags. That race was eventually won by Jacques Villeneuve. Goodyear again finished second in the 1997 race after being passed by Arie Luyendyk on the back straight on lap 194. A restart on the last lap saw the green and white flag waved despite the on-track lights still signaling yellow. Goodyear, who had expected the race to finish under caution, was weaving his car to keep his tires warm at the time of the restart. Meanwhile, eventual winner Luyendyk had already begun accelerating away from the field.
Goodyear drove in two CART races for Walker Racing in 1996 before a practice accident at the Emerson Fittipaldi Speedway in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil sidelined him for most of the season. In 1997 he moved to the Indy Racing League with Treadway Racing and the next year, he moved to Panther Racing, where he stayed for three seasons just losing out for the series title in 2000 to Buddy Lazier. He retired from his racing career after a crash with Sarah Fisher in the 2001 Indianapolis 500 and then he became a color analyst for ABC and ESPN's coverage of the IndyCar Series, with Paul Page, Jack Arute, Rusty Wallace, Todd Harris, Marty Reid, Allen Bestwick and Eddie Cheever.
In 1988, he was crowned champion of the Rothmans Porsche Turbo Cup series driving the Pop 84 / Pfaff 944 Turbo race car, winning 3 out of the 8 races.http://www.autocourse.ca/archives/national/porsche/1988/porsche.htm {{Bare URL inline|date=August 2022}} He also co-drove the second of the factory entered Porsche GT1 machines in the 1996 24 Hours of Le Mans with Yannick Dalmas and Karl Wendlinger. They finished third behind the other GT1 and the winning #7 Porsche WSC-95 of Joest Racing. Goodyear was inducted into the Canadian Motorsport Hall of Fame in 2002 and the Ontario Sports Hall of Fame in 2014.{{cite web|title=Scott Goodyear|url=http://oshof.ca/index.php/honoured-members/item/189-scott-goodyear|website=oshof.ca|access-date=25 September 2014|archive-date=12 July 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190712152542/https://oshof.ca/index.php/honoured-members/item/189-scott-goodyear|url-status=dead}} Goodyear was announced as the Race Director for both the Formula 4 United States Championship and the F3 Americas Championship starting in the 2019 season.{{Cite web|url=https://www.f3americas.com/articles/2010839-2019-f3-americas-schedule-revealed-at-pri-show-scott-goodyear-announced-as-race-director|title=2019 F3 Americas Schedule Revealed at PRI Show- Scott Goodyear Announced as Race Director|date=7 December 2018 }}
