Pressley to fill in for Ambrose at Milwaukee

SPARTA, Ky. – Marcos Ambrose said Robert Pressley would practice and qualify Ambrose’s No. 59 JTG Racing Nationwide Series Ford at the Milwaukee Mile next weekend should Ambrose qualify for the Sprint Cup race at Infineon Raceway.
 
Ambrose will attempt to make the Toyota/Save Mart 350 in the Wood Brothers’ No. 21 Sprint Cup Ford. If he qualifies, Ambrose said Friday he would drive in both Cup practices next Saturday before trying to make it to Milwaukee in time for the Camping World RV Rental 250.
 
“We got all the planes and helicopters and stuff that we need to get it done,” Ambrose said. “The first thing is to get that car in the race at
Sonoma, and then we activate that plan. If we don’t, then I’ll just make my way to Milwaukee and practice and qualify the car and do the weekend as normal.
 
“We intend to try to do both, depending on how it works. If I get the 21 Wood Brothers car in the race, my focus is going to be primarily on that package.”
 
Pressley, a 10-time winner in the No. 2 series, last ran a race in 2005.

He’s a former driver for owner Tad Geschickter’s team and has served as a driver coach for JTG.
