Well... this is news. To those of you who care, anyway. SHR joins Ford in 2017, with engines by Roush Yates. Assuming no lineup changes, this includes the #41 of Kurt Busch, the #4 of Kevin Harvick, the #10 of Danica Patrick and the #14 of Clint Bowyer.

Interesting, I wonder what happened, Hendick and Stewart are very close friends.

Yeah, so far it doesn’t really make sense. They had a great run, but it might be nice to have a field that is less entirely saturated with Chevys.

Stewart and Harvick have been GM forever.

I wonder if there’s some down the road path of Haas > F1 > Ford Ecoboost?

Neat idea, but won't Haas F1 be using Ferrari power?

Doesn’t matter, Danica can still crash a Ford.

Initially.
But I did say ...”Down the road...”
Ford’s not ready for F1 right now.
But Ford dominated F1 before, and they are developing the EcoBoost for the GT for Endurance racing...
And shouldn’t an American team use American power?

Kurt Busch is reuniting with Roush-Yates power. He’s already won a championship with that engine.
