Stewart-Haas Racing crew chief Darian Grubb, the crew chief for driver Tony Stewart, is looking for another job after he was told midway through the Sprint Cup race at Charlotte that he would not return to the team next season. Sources are saying that Grubb has been offered a job at Hendrick Motorsports, where he worked for four years as an engineer. He has also been connected to Michael Waltrip Racing and several other teams.

There is speculation that Stewart will hire former Joe Gibbs Racing crew chief Greg Zipadelli to be his director of competition in 2012 and Penske Championship crew chief Steve Addington to be his crew chief.
