Braun Racing says that David Reutimann, Reed Sorenson and Brian Ickler will share time with Brian Vickers in the No. 32 Toyota for the remainder of the 2009 NASCAR Nationwide Series season.

Reutimann will compete at O’Reilly Raceway Park in July, Bristol Motor Speedway in August, Richmond International Raceway in September, Dover International Raceway in September and Homestead-Miami Speedway in November. In addition to his previously scheduled races in Braun’s No. 10 car, Reutimann will drive that entry in Friday’s Dollar General 300 at Chicagoland Speedway as well as the Dollar General 300 at Lowe’s Motor Speedway in October.

Sorenson will drive the No. 32 at Gateway International Raceway in July, while Ickler, who has one career start in the series, will be in the seat for the Iowa Speedway race in August and again at Memphis Motorsports Park in October.

“I am very pleased to announce this group of drivers for the remainder of our 2009 season,” said Braun Racing owner Todd Braun. “We have a strong group of veterans and talented up-and-comers to complete the scheduled races in the No. 32 Dollar General Toyota. I feel that with this lineup and Brian Vickers, we can position ourselves for a solid finish this season.”

A driver for the No. 32 car for the August race at Circuit Gilles Villeneuve in Montreal and the November event at Phoenix International Raceway will be announced at a later date.

The No. 32 car, driven by Vickers and Burney Lamar this year, is 10th in the owner standings.
