Chip Ganassi Racing has ruled out a deal to run Danica Patrick in this year's Indianapolis 500 and Daytonaꦑ 500 as part of her farewell races before retiring from motorsport.

After losing her Stewart-Haas Racing seat in NASCAR at the end of the 2017 season, Patrick announced she would 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:enter the Daytona 500 as a one-of♌f before making a final return to the Indy 500 in May, seven years after her last Indy🐟Car appearance.

Patrick admitted earlier this month it was taking longer tওhan ಌexpected to strike a deal for the races, and lost another option earlier this week when Chip Ganassi Racing president Steve Lauletta confirmed a deal was of𒀰f the table.

"We’re not talking any longer," Lauletta told Sirius XM NASCAR Radio.

"I think it would have made sense, and we did have conversations if she wanted to run i⭕n both races, the Daytona 500 and th🍃e Indianapolis 500.

"Ultimately we coulꦐdn’t come to a solution that worked for both of us.

“We’re going to stay focused on the task at hand. We have got two cars that were testi༺ng yesterday in Sebring.

"🌄We’re going to stay focused on that rather than put another temporary effort together and not doing it up to the standards that we would want to.

"So I don’t tꦇhink you’ll see that happening with▨ us in 2018."

Chip Ganassi Racing downsized from a four-car IndyCar entry in🌠 2017 to just two cars for this season, with Scott Dixon and Ed Jones set ✅to represent the team.
