Concord NC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Danica Patrick revealed on Monday that she will forgo this year's Indianapolis 500 and will instead compete in the 600-mile Sprint Cup Series race at Charlotte Motor Speedway. The Indy 500 and the Coca-Cola 600 -- NASCAR's longest race of the season -- are scheduled on May 27.

 

"I hope to do it [Indy 500] in the future," she said during a press conference. "At this point, after a lot of conversations, it's just going to be the Coke 600. I think it's going to be a big challenge, but I'm looking forward to it."

 

Patrick has competed in the Indy 500 in each of the last seven years, finishing in the top-10 six times. Her best finish in that race is third, which came in 2009. She posted a fourth-place run at Indy during her '05 rookie season in IndyCar.

 

Regarding this year's race at Indy, Patrick noted "It was just something that didn't quite work out on the business side of things."

 

Pocono is the only remaining family owned-and-operated track on the current Sprint Cup schedule.

 

In 2009, Mattioli received the Philanthropic Lifetime Achievement Award presented by the Association of Fundraising Professionals for his contributions to local civic organizations, hospitals, schools and charities. He served on the board of directors of numerous organizations and was dedicated to improving the quality of life in Northeastern Pennsylvania.

 

Charlotte, NC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Unlike 2011, NASCAR will not make any major alterations in its rules for the upcoming season. Officials from the sanctioning body, including NASCAR chairman and chief executive officer Brian France and president Mike Helton, held a press conference Thursday to address the "state of the sport."

 

NASCAR made such drastic changes to help improve track attendance and television ratings, which had both slumped in recent years.

 

The 2011 season in NASCAR's premier series -- now known as the Sprint Cup Series -- featured the closest battle for the championship. Tony Stewart and Carl Edwards ended the season in a points tie (2,403 each), but Stewart captured his third title by virtue of his five wins -- all of them in the Chase -- compared to only one for Edwards.
