Ryan Newman's long-anticipated move to Tony Stewart's new race team will become reality at Michigan International Speedway, NASCAR.com has learned. The announcement is scheduled for 10:30 a.m. ET Friday.

Newman has been seen for some time as the leading candidate to fill the second seat at Stewart-Haas Racing, formed when the two-time NASCAR champion received half of the Haas CNC operation currently competing on the Sprint Cup tour. Stewart, in addition to becoming co-owner, will drive a No. 14 car backed by Office Depot and Old Spice. Newman will drive a No. 4, although the sponsorship is unclear.

Newman parted ways with Penske Racing, his NASCAR home since he first broke into the sport in 2000, on July 15. Although Newman had other options, the 30-year-old reigning Daytona 500 champion chose to ally with Stewart, also from his home state of Indiana.
