As expected, newly named Andretti Autosport has confirmed today that Danica Patrick will stay with the team despite speculations sending her to NASCAR.
Both parties had never hidden the fact that they had agreed a contract extension, and today they officially announced a new multi-year deal with backing from Internet company GoDaddy.
Patrick joined AGR for the 2007 season and took her first victory with the team at Motegi last year.
In addition to Patrick, Andretti also has Tony Kanaan and Marco Andretti on long-term deals, with Ryan Hunter-Reay expected to replace Hideki Mutoh in the team's fourth car.
Patrick is reportedly working on a deal that would partner her on a limited Nationwide Series schedule with JR Motorsports but no announcement was made.
