James Douglas Meredith Hinchcliffe (born December 5, 1986) is a Canadian racing driver. He is best known for competing in the IndyCar Series from 2011 until 2021. He is also a commentator for IndyCar broadcasts on FOX Sports and occasional Formula One broadcasts on F1TV.

Hinchcliffe won the 2011 IndyCar Rookie of the Year award driving for Newman/Haas Racing, and six race wins for Andretti Autosport and Schmidt Peterson Motorsports. In 2015, his first year driving for Schmidt Peterson, he suffered life-threatening blood loss when he was impaled in a crash when his suspension failed while practicing for the Indianapolis 500. He would recover and win the pole position for the following year's race and finished in seventh position.
