Danica Patrick needs $15 million to participate in 2017 NASCAR Cup season
Danica Patrick is in need of a little bit of money — $15.2 million to be exact.
Patrick, the No. 10 driver with Stewart-Haas Racing, has been bucked by her primary sponsor, Nature’s Bakery, and is in need of the money to compete in NASCAR’s 36-race Cup season in 2017.
Nature’s Bakery alleges Patrick is in a breach of her contract for promoting competing products, according to the Orlando Sentinel. Stewart-Haas Racing has since sued the Nevada-based company for breach of contract.
In a total of 154 career starts, Patrick has six top-10 finishes.
