Danica Patrick to drive Daytona 500 for Premium Motorsports

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Danica Patrick is teaming with Premium Motorsports for next month's Daytona 500, the final race of her NASCAR career.

The one-race deal will put Patrick in the seat of the No. 7 GoDaddy Chevrolet, the same number she drove when she entered stock-car racing in 2010.

Her former crew chief, Tony Eury Jr., will return to Patrick's pit box for her finale.

Patrick says: "I couldn't have written a better story about how this would all fall into place. Going with the flow is working out beautifully. ... It all makes my last NASCAR race just that much sweeter.
