Patrick given green light for Daytona Nationwide race

Autoracing Betting Lines

02/08/2010 - Daytona Beach, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - IndyCar series star Danica Patrick will continue to be in the spotlight during Speedweeks at Daytona International Speedway.

Patrick announced on Monday she will make her Nationwide Series debut in Saturday's DRIVE4COPD 300 season-opener at Daytona. She originally was scheduled to make her series debut in the February 20 race at California, but after an impressive performance in the ARCA event over the weekend at Daytona, her foray in NASCAR's second-tier circuit has been bumped up one week.

"Racing in the Nationwide Series race was my goal during this entire two-month preparation process, but we wanted to make sure it was the right thing to do," Patrick said in a statement. "The ARCA race was a blast, and I'm not ready for my first Daytona Speedweeks to end just yet. I want more racing."

JR Motorsports -- a team co-owned by Dale Earnhardt Jr. -- made the decision shortly after Patrick's sixth-place finish in the ARCA race. Despite spinning during the mid-stages of the event, Patrick rebounded in the closing laps to become the highest-finishing female at Daytona since Shawna Robinson's second- place run here in the 1999 ARCA event.

"I think Danica proved to everyone that she can compete in stock cars at a high level, and right now seat time is extremely important," team general manager Kelley Earnhardt said. "She has worked extremely hard during the past two months for this opportunity. Her dedication and work ethic is infectious."

Patrick, driver of the No.7 Chevrolet, is guaranteed a starting position in the Nationwide race at Daytona due to JRM's acquisition of owner points from CJM Racing's No.11 team, which finished 15th in points last season.

The 27-year-old driver will compete in the first three Nationwide races this season -- Daytona, California and Las Vegas -- before taking a four-month break in the series due to her full-time IndyCar schedule.
