Before you roll your eyes or laugh, there’s a completely logical reason for pitting Danica Patrick against Ricky Stenhouse Jr. in this poll.

The two drivers, who have dated each other for a few years, finished the 2015 Sprint Cup season 24th and 25th in the points standings, respectively.

Patrick’s result was her best in the three seasons in the Sprint Cup Series with Stewart-Haas Racing. Stenhouse improved from 27th in 2014.

Both drivers enter 2016 still looking for their first Sprint Cup wins after three seasons. Stenhouse, one of Roush Fenway Racing’s three drivers, has only three top-five finishes and two of Patrick’s six top-10 finishes came in 2015.

Patrick will work with crew chief Billy Scott, her third crew chief in four years.

Now it’s time to have your say.
