GoDaddy is officially PUMPING THE BRAKES on its NASCAR sponsorship of Danica Patrick -- and will no longer be her primary car sponsor.

The internet domain company has been Patrick's #1 car sponsor since 2010 -- but has announced it will NOT renew it's deal with the 33-year-old driver when it expires later this year.

GoDaddy says it is instead working on a "personal services" contract with the driver.

Patrick told The Associated Press, "I'm sad. I'm a little surprised and I'm sad."

That’s odd. She didn’t mention anything about it to me this morning before I left for work.

GoDaddy seems to be fading as it is.

As for Danica, she’s a middle of the pack driver with about 20 other guys.

Danica is limited in excelling at the superspeedways and restrictor plate races where she can exploit fuel stratgy. Maybe she can compete on the tri ovals but sill shes just average

The Go Daddy car was far and away the most famous car on the track. Many watched to just to see Danica crash, they were rarely disappointed. After all finishing is overrated.
