Robert Alan "Bobby" Labonte (born May 8, 1964) is an American race car driver in the Nascar Sprint Cup Series. He will drive the #7 Toyota Camry for Robby Gordon Motorsports at New Hampshire and the #09 Chevy for Phoenix Racing at Daytona and Chicago in July. He currently resides in Trinity, North Carolina. He is married to Donna and they have two children, Robert Tyler and Madison. He, and his older brother, Terry Labonte (who was also a prominent NASCAR driver, until he retired from full-time competition at the end of the 2006 season) are the only brothers to have both won the championship in NASCAR's top series. He is also the uncle of former Nationwide Series winner Justin Labonte.
As of 2008, Labonte is the only driver to have won both the NASCAR Winston Cup championship (2000) and the NASCAR Busch Series championship (1991). He also won the IROC title in 2001.
