    Brian Vickers hasn't ruled out a return to Red Bull Racing if investors can be found to keep the two-car Sprint Cup organization running beyond this season.

    "I'm going to keep all my options open," Vickers said Friday at Infineon Raceway. "I built a home here for five years. I'm really happy here. There's a lot of great people at Red Bull Racing. I was one of the first employees and I've watched it grow from the beginning and would like to think I contributed to that process.

    "Yeah, there's a huge part of me that wants to stay. There are so many other dominoes that have to fall first," he said.

    Red Bull officials announced earlier this week that they were seeking investors to take over ownership after this season but didn't rule out continuing in the sport as a sponsor.
