Richard Petty Motorsports owner interested in Danica, Bowyer: Now that Richard Petty Motorsports is on firm financial footing, don’t be surprised if Danica Patrick is part of a conversation about the organization’s future. Financier Andrew Murstein, one of Richard Petty’s partners in the revamped RPM, thinks Patrick would be an excellent fit for the Sprint Cup team. When 2012 arrives, however, Murstein would like to see a third car in the stable, and Patrick, who currently drives part-time for JR Motorsports in the Nationwide Series, is an intriguing possibility. Clint Bowyer of Richard Childress Racing is another driver who has caught Murstein’s eye. Murstein said he eventually would like to see four Cup teams at RPM.(Sporting News)(1-27-2011)
