It’s a Boy for the Gordon’s

Jeff Gordon announced Tuesday that his wife is expecting a baby boy, though the four-time NASCAR champion won’t push his son into racing.

“Whatever is going to be their passion in life, I want to support that,” Gordon said during a break during testing at Talladega Superspeedway. “If it’s racing, I’ll support that.”

The baby, due in August, will be the second child for Gordon and his Belgian wife, Ingrid. Their daughter, Ella, will be 3 in June.

The couple learned the baby’s gender last week.

“For us, the ultimate was having a boy and a girl,” Gordon said. “We want two, and we want both. We were going to be totally content and fine, and stop even if it was a girl.”

Gordon is part of a baby boom this season in NASCAR. Elliott Sadler and Carl Edwards became first-time fathers last month, and four-time defending champion Jimmie Johnson is expecting the birth of his first child in July.
