Ricky Stenhouse Jr., who won the 2011 Nationwide Series title, will compete in the 2012 Daytona 500 in Roush Fenway Racing’s No. 6 car.
The team does not expect to run the unsponsored car for the full season but is locked into the first five races based on owners points from 2011 when the car was driven by David Ragan. The only race confirmed for now is the Daytona 500. The team currently does not have a sponsor for the race, team spokesman Kevin Woods said.
Ragan, who won the July race at Daytona, was sponsored by UPS last season but was released when UPS scaled back its sponsorship and a replacement was not found.
The 24-year-old Stenhouse has competed in one Cup race, last year’s Coca-Cola 600, where he finished 11th.
Stenhouse will participate in the NASCAR test next week at Daytona International Speedway to prepare for the Daytona 500.
In a remarkable turnaround, Stenhouse finished 16th in the Nationwide standings in 2010 but won two races on his way to capturing the title in 2011.
Whether he runs a full Nationwide schedule in 2012 has not been solidified, Woods said.
