With Danica Patrick's move to Andretti Green Racing, there's been some additional rumors swirling about this driver who's brought a newfound interest to the IRL.

According to Automotive News, signs point to her driving Bryan Herta’s No. 7 car - which just happens to the XM Satellite Radio car - and Patrick is rumored to be getting XM Satellite Radio for her car. Herta, a four-time race winner (two in CART, two in the IRL,) has asked to drive the new Andretti Green Racing Acura in the American Le Mans Series, and there is reason to believe he will get the job. Herta is, after all, one of Andretti’s best friends and one of America’s top road racers.

In addition, Automotive News reports that Danica Patrick might be getting her own show on XM Satellite Radio:
"Think of that: All Danica, all the time."

With NASCAR making the jump from XM to SIRIUS in 2007, I can see XM looking to bring some fresh - and famous - blood into their IRL offering. It's in their best interest to help fuel the attention that Danica herself has helped create for the sport.
