Fellows driving for JR Motorsports at Watkins Glen & Montreal
JR Motorsports announced the return of two critical components to its road-course program driver Ron Fellows and sponsor Canadian Tire. Fellows, a previous winner for JR Motorsports, will drive the #5 Chevy in NASCAR Nationwide Series events at Watkins Glen International (Aug. 13) and Circuit Gilles Villeneuve (Aug. 20) with Canadian Tire as the team's primary sponsor for both events. Fellows finished second at Road America on June 25th for JR Motorsports. The #5 Canadian Tire team will give JRM three entries in both of the remaining road-course events. Aric Almirola will drive the #88 Chevy in both races. Jimmie Johnson will drive the #7 at Watkins Glen in a one-race deal announced Tuesday, and Danica Patrick will take over the #7 at Circuit Gilles Villeneuve. JR Motorsports
