KANNAPOLIS, N.C. — Health-conscious Danica Patrick has a new and fitting sponsor to replace GoDaddy on her No. 10 car next year: Nature’s Bakery, the maker of flavored fig bars.
In a Tuesday news conference, Stewart-Haas Racing pulled back a leaf-covered tarp to reveal a light blue Chevrolet SS for Patrick to race in 2016 and beyond, thus ending speculation the free-agent-to-be could land at another team.
SHR co-owner Tony Stewart and Nature’s Bakery founders Sam and Dave Marson were on hand to announce the 33-year-old driver would be in a car fueled by fig bars for 28 races next season as part of a “multi-year” deal.
