MOORESVILLE, N.C. — Red Bull Racing Team is pleased to announce that
Brian Vickers has signed a multi-year extension to his contract.
Vickers will continue to drive the No. 83 car under the leadership of
crew chief Ryan Pemberton.

"The team is continuing to prove that it is a consistent force week in
and week out," said Jay Frye, vice president and general manager of
RBRT. "Brian has been here from the beginning and he continues to be a
vital piece of the puzzle with regards to our ultimate goal of
building Red Bull Racing into a consistent contender."

Since joining RBRT at the beginning of the 2007 season, Vickers has
racked up a win, eight top-five and 22 top-10 finishes, along with
seven poles.

"I'm thrilled," Vickers said. "This has been a long time coming, and
there is nowhere else I would rather be. I am looking forward to
building on what we have started the last couple of years. It is an
interesting experience being with a team from the ground up — going
through the growing pains, then successes, together. I am so proud to
have been able to bring this team their first win."

The No. 83 currently sits 13th in NASCAR Sprint Cup Series driver
points, 12 points out of the top 12.

I think he was going to be retained anyway, but I agree, his win
kicked any doubts about his re-signing over the ledge.
