Racing career

Early career

Leguizamón began his racing career in karting before progressing to single-seater categories in South America. Between 2015 and 2018, he competed in Formula 4 Sudamericana, Formula 4 United States Championship,[2] NACAM Formula 4 Championship, Atlantic Championship and F3 Americas Championship,[3][4] achieving multiple wins and podiums, including a championship title in the 2018 Atlantic Championship with K-Hill Motorsports.[5]

Argentina

From 2019 onwards, Leguizamón competed in the Top Race V6 and TC Mouras series, driving for his own team DM Team.

NASCAR

On 21 March 2023, it was announced that Leguizamon would attempt to make his NASCAR Xfinity Series debut for CHK Racing for the race at COTA.[6][7] He was originally scheduled to drive for MBM Motorsports for that race, but that would not happen due to sponsorship issues.[8] He would ultimately fail to qualify.

In 2025, Leguizamón debuted in the NASCAR Xfinity Series at the Circuit of the Americas in Austin, Texas. The event marked his first appearance in one of NASCAR’s three national divisions, making him the first Argentine driver of his generation to reach that level.[9] He finished in 37th due to mechanical issues.

On 5 January 2026, it was announced that Leguizamón will run a partial schedule in the now renamed NASCAR O'Reilly Auto Parts Series, driving the No. 30 Chevrolet for Barrett-Cope Racing.[10]
