Will Tissot T-Touch Expert ambassador share h
Danica Patrick looks set to share her Number 7 car this season, after a change of strategy by JR Motorsports (JRM).
The Tissot T-Touch Expert ambassador, Patrick, was originally due to run the No.7 on a reduced schedule this year, but JRM has had a change of heart.
The car will now run a full season with Scott Wimmer driving at Bristol this month and Nashville in April ahead of Patrick's return.
The team was scheduled to run just the 88 car for the whole season, but it seems the quality of the 7 has forced the change of strategy.
Crew chief Tony Eury Jr said: "The No.7 car is too good not to be at the race track".
Further sponsorship for both cars is hoped for, with neither vehicle reported to have sold out at this stage.
Patrick was announced as a Tissot ambassador back in August last year ahead of a four-page advertorial in GQ magazine.
