INDIANAPOLIS — The timing of the latest round of Danica Patrick-to-NASCAR reports isn’t lost on those in the IndyCar world, where Thursday’s major announcement that IZOD will be the IndyCar Series’ first title sponsor in a decade has been forced to share headlines with its most famous driver’s likely part-time foray into stock cars.
Recently crowned 2009 IndyCar Series champion Dario Franchitti — a former Andretti Green Racing teammate of Patrick’s — said Thursday he’s still confident she’s staying in IndyCar next season.
“I believe she’ll be back in IndyCar next year and that will help her with her goal of winning the Indianapolis 500,” Franchitti told FanHouse. “If she does drive in NASCAR, I think it will be difficult to do both.”
