Bill Davis Racing officials have confirmed NASCAR veteran Mike Skinner as the driver of their No. 27 Sprint Cup Series entry next weekend at Fontana, in place of Jacques Villeneuve.

Earlier on Friday at Daytona, the team's general manager Mike Brown had revealed that the deal with Villeneuve for the coming races was pending on a sponsorship deal being secured, suggesting the Canadian could be replaced as of next weekend.

At least JV will participate in some real racing this summer. Peugeot has a very strong lineup this year.


When he failed to make the grid in Thursday's Gatorade Duel 150s, Villeneuve immediately left the track and flew to Paris to meet up with his wife and to fill out the forms to enter the June running of the 24 Hours of Le Mans.

Villeneuve, whose attempt to make Sunday's Daytona 500 ended with a crash in Thursday's qualifying race, continues to work on finding a sponsor and rebuilding his marketing team, which was disrupted with a recent split with manager Craig Pollock. "Jaqcues is working hard to put all the right people in place with different Canadian companies," he said. "He just needs to regroup and get his management team in order."(ESPN.com)(2-15-2008)
