Statistics current as of April 1, 2017.

Stewart Friesen is a Canadian professional driver. He currently competes full-time in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series, driving the No. 52 Chevrolet Silverado for Halmar Friesen Racing. He also drives part-time at local dirt tracks in New York and New Jersey.

Moving to Old Forge, New York to race , Friesen raced big-blocks with widespread success in the Northeast United States, advancing to the 2010 World Finals at Charlotte Motor Speedway. He was one of the top comptitors in the SuperDIRT Series in the mid-2010s, and he also has triumphed in the World of Outlaws sprint car series. Eventually, he met Chris Larsen, who gave Friesen his first NASCAR ride at Eldora Speedway, which was supposed to be a one-time deal. However, the partnership blossomed in to a full-time ride. Sometimes, Friesen runs NASCAR and dirt on the same day.

Breaking into NASCAR with the 2016 Aspen Dental Eldora Dirt Derby, Friesen put his No. 16 Halmar Racing truck into the twelfth starting spot on the grid by virtue of a second-place finish in his heat. However, contact with Caleb Holman ruined his night, and Friesen's maiden voyage resulted in a 28th-place finish. Running five more races in the season, Friesen recorded three top twenty finishes, the best being a 13th at New Hampshire Motor Speedway. On January 9, 2016, Friesen announced that he would run the full 2017 season renumbering No. 16 to No. 52 with Tommy Baldwin Jr. coming on as a team manager.

Friesen is married to Jessica Zemkin (who was Tony Stewart's ex-girlfriend at that time).
