Earnhardt Ganassi Racing with Felix Sabates announced that they will add NASCAR Sprint Cup Series driver Jamie McMurray as a teammate of Juan Pablo Montoya, to drive the No. 1 Bass Pro Shops/Tracker Boats Chevrolet for the 2010 season.
Fresh off his win at the Talladega Superspeedway, McMurray will return to Ganassi whom he raced for from 2002-05.
“I am really excited about this opportunity with Earnhardt Ganassi Racing as I think Juan Pablo and Martin have shown this season, their equipment is as good as anyone’s in the garage," McMurray said. "I am really looking forward to getting behind the wheel of their cars and once again competing for a NASCAR championship. It will also be fun to work with some of the people that I worked with when I was there a few years ago."
Bass Pro Shops will once again return for their fifth season as one of the primary partners on the No. 1 Chevrolet.
"I am really happy to have the opportunity to work with Bass Pro Shops as I grew up near Bass Pro’s headquarters in Springfield, MO and am a huge fan of their stores,” McMurray said.
