Hudson Schwartz (born 14 May 2009) is an American racing driver currently competing for KCL by MP Motorsport in the F4 Spanish Championship.
Schwartz is the son of Roy Schwartz, one of three co-founders of Axios, and an amateur racing driver, who Hudson raced against in the 2022 Lucas Oil Formula Car Race Series.
Schwartz began karting at the age of four and continued karting until 2023, mainly racing for Rolison Performance Group in SKUSA-organized championships.
Schwartz made his full-time single-seater debut in 2023, racing for Velocity Racing Development from Barber onwards. Taking his first podium of the season at Virginia by finishing third in race two, Schwartz then took his maiden pole and best result in the following round at Mid-Ohio by finishing second. In the remaining two rounds of the season, Schwartz took one more podium at the season-finale at Circuit of the Americas to end his only season in USF Juniors eighth in points. At the end of the year, Schwartz competed full-time in the Lucas Oil Formula Car Race Series, taking six wins and winning the title and earning $250,000 to put towards his career.
After topping the end of season USF2000 tests, Schwartz made the step-up USF2000 in 2024, joining Pabst Racing for his rookie season in the series. In his only season in the series, Schwartz scored a lone podium in the season-ending Portland round by finishing third in race one, which helped him finish eighth in points. Following that, Schwartz joined Van Amersfoort Racing to race in the final two rounds of the Italian F4 Championship and the final round of the Euro 4 Championship.
