Autoracing Betting Lines
10/07/2008 -
Statesville, NC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Canadian Patrick Carpentier has been
released from his driving duties of the No.10 Dodge in the Sprint Cup Series,
Gillett Evernham Motorsports officials announced Tuesday. Mike Wallace will
drive the No.10 car this weekend at the Lowe's Motor Speedway, and AJ
Allmendinger will take over for the remainder of the season.
"I'm excited about this news," Allmendinger said. "GEM has great equipment and
I'm confident we can take these final five races and get the No.10 up in
points. I know we have a lot of work to do, but we are going to give it our
best shot. I'm looking forward to spending some time with crew chief Mike
Shiplett and the guys starting at Martinsville."
Last week, Allmendinger was released from his ride at Red Bull Racing, but
picked up by Michael Waltrip Racing to drive the No.00 Toyota this weekend at
Charlotte in a one-race deal.
Carpentier drove the car in 24 races during his Sprint Cup rookie season
with his best finish of 14th coming in July at Daytona. He won the pole
for the June race at New Hampshire. Carpentier's team is currently 39th
in owner points.
"We certainly appreciate all the effort that Patrick Carpentier made for us
this year, Mark McArdle, the team's vice president and managing director of
competition, said. "But our job is to put ourselves in a position to win
races, plus we're striving to get the No.10 into the top-35 in points. We feel
AJ gives us the best chance to do both."
Reed Sorenson will assume the driving duties of the No.10 at the beginning of
the 2009 season. Sorenson is currently behind the wheel of the No.41 Dodge for
Chip Ganassi Racing with Felix Sabates.
