Stewart-Haas Racing announced Thursday morning that Tony Stewart will return to driving duties this weekend’s NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race at Richmond International Raceway.
Officials said Stewart has been cleared by his doctors and by NASCAR. He missed the first eight races of the NSCS season after an off track accident in late January. After a successful March 9 evaluation, Stewart was prescribed a rehabilitation regimen that led to his being cleared to race this weekend.
“As soon as the doctors said they were happy with my scans, I wasn’t going to wait any longer to get back in my racecar,” said Stewart, who announced last year that he would retire after the 2016 season. “I want to make the most of my last season in Sprint Cup, and I’ve been on the sidelines long enough.”
After Sunday’s race at Richmond, Stewart will take part in a Goodyear tire test at Indianapolis. From there, he is slated to qualify his car at Talladega Superspeedway before handing over the driving duties to Ty Dillon.

After that, he’ll return to driving full time at Kansas Speedway.
“We’re taking a strategic approach to my return,” Stewart said. “Richmond is a track where I feel very comfortable and because it’s a short track, the speeds are substantially less. The Goodyear test in Indy is sort of a controlled environment, allowing me to get more acclimated with my car at higher speeds.
“We’ll start the Talladega race to get the points, but understanding the style of racing and the higher potential of getting involved in an incident, we thought it was best to minimize the amount of time I’m in the car. I’ll return fulltime at Kansas and enjoy every moment I can in my final year of Sprint Cup.”
