Danica Patrick has made headlines again.
She will be losing her sponsorship with GoDaddy at the end of the 2015 season.
GoDaddy announced Wednesday (today) that they will NOT be sponsoring the 33 year old female driver in 2016.
This is also the last year of Patrick's 3-year contract with SHR (Stewart-HAAS Racing).
"I think initially the first thought is 'bad' because it feels like it's going away, but then I have to remember that it's not really going away for me, it's just going away in the way that it was," Patrick told USA TODAY Sports. "I really feel like there's really a lot of good work to do. We've really grown up together."
GoDaddy has been sponsoring Patrick since 2007 when she was in the IZOD IndyCar Series. It became her primary sponsor in the 2010 IZOD IndyCar Series season.
It has been sponsoring her ever since then.
"I would love to be back at Stewart-Haas," Patrick said. "Stewart-Haas has said they would love to have me and obviously we would have to go and do some work and try and find a primary that's either willing to step up or come in. And so, we're working through that and all that has to happen first. We need to find sponsorship and then we can move forward with the rest of it. From everything I have heard and everything I feel, I absolutely want to move forward with Stewart-Haas." (According to USA TODAY Sports)
Patrick has used Aspen Dental and TaxACT as other sponsors in recent races.
