Hinchcliffe takes over Patrick's ride at Andretti Autosport

Autoracing Betting Lines

01/10/2012 - Indianapolis, IN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Andretti Autosport has named James Hinchcliffe as the replacement driver for Danica Patrick in the No.27 car for the 2012 IZOD IndyCar Series season.

Hinchcliffe drove for Newman-Haas Racing during his 2011 rookie-of-the-year season. The 25-year-old Toronto native finished 12th in points last year, scoring three top-five finishes and seven top-10s.

He will join Marco Andretti and Ryan Hunter-Reay at Michael Andretti's team. GoDaddy will continue its sponsorship with the No.27.

"Can't put into words how cool it is to be driving the #27 for [GoDaddy] and [Andretti Autosport]," Hinchcliffe posted on his Twitter account Tuesday.

Dan Wheldon had signed with Andretti to replace Patrick before his fatal crash in the October 16 season-finale at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.

Patrick is NASCAR-bound this year, running a full-time schedule in the Nationwide Series and a partial one in the Sprint Cup Series.

Matt Kenseth And Kevin Harvick Favorites To Take NASCAR Nextel Cup Championship

(September 15)—The NASCAR season has hit the homestretch with the opening event on this year’s Chase for the Cup taking place this weekend at the Sylvania 300 at New Hampshire International Speedway. With 10 races remaining to determine the Cup Series champion, leading online sportsbook MySportsbook.com today announced odds on all 10 Chase qualifying drivers capturing the NASCAR Sprint Cup Championship.

One of the largest sportsbook sites on the Internet, MySportsbook.com currently lists the top two drivers in the point standings as the early favorites to win the Nextel Cup. Entering the Chase for the Cup with a slim five-point lead in the point standings, 2003 NASCAR champ Matt Kenseth has been made a slight favorite to win his second Cup at 7/2 betting odds. 2001 Cup Rookie of the Year Kevin Harvick has betting odds listed at 5/2 and four-time NASCAR champion Jeff Gordon is listed at 6/1 to capture the Nextel Cup this year.

Hoping to follow in the footsteps of his legendary father who won six NASCAR titles, Dale Earnhardt Jr. stands at 8/1 to breakthrough with his first Cup victory.
