Danica Patrick will not drive for Stewart-Haas Racing after this season due to new sponsorship arrangements. Which team could she potentially sign with?

Tony Stewart issued a statement a day after Danica Patrick announced she would no longer be with Stewart-Haas Racing after this season.

Stewart posted his message Wednesday morning on Facebook:

“I’ve always been a believer in Danica’s ability as a racecar driver and that continues to be the case. She’s one of the most fearless people I’ve ever met. She has never backed down from a challenge. In fact, she’s sought out new challenges throughout her career, and that’s what brought her to NASCAR and Stewart-Haas Racing.

“Making the jump from INDYCAR to NASCAR is not easy, yet she had the courage to do so and put up better numbers than a lot of other drivers who have tried to make that same transition. I’m proud of how hard Danica has worked during her time at Stewart-Haas Racing, and she continues to work hard.

“My support for Danica is unwavering. We’re going to end this season strong and make the most of these last 10 races.”
