BREAKING NEWS: Sadler To Joe Gibbs Racing in 2013

Joe Gibbs Racing has confirmed that Elliott Sadler will drive a full schedule of NASCAR Nationwide Series events for the team in 2013. The move has been rumored for weeks, since Sadler and Richard Childress Racing revealed that they would part company at the end of the year.

JGR president J.D. Gibbs confirmed the move today, saying Sadler will compete for the Nationwide Series championship next year as a teammate to former series champion Brian Vickers. He has finished second to champion Ricky Stenhouse, Jr., in each of the last two seasons, and amassed four wins, 15 Top-5 and 24 Top-10 finishes in 33 starts this year.
