CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) - Red Bull Racing is sticking with Toyota as the manufacturer for the program's two NASCAR Sprint Cup teams.
The agreement, announced Wednesday, continues the relationship that began when Red Bull started its Cup program three years ago. Red Bull had been in preliminary talks about a possible move to General Motors before opting to remain with Toyota.
Red Bull sponsors the No. 82 driven by Scott Speed and the No. 83 driven by Brian Vickers. Vickers qualified for the Chase for the Championship for the first time following last week's race at Richmond. Vickers also picked up the first win for Red Bull Racing at Michigan earlier this year at Michigan.
Red Bull general manager Jay Frye called Toyota a critical element of Red Bull's success, adding he is looking forward to continuing the relationship.
