Kasey Kahne and Red Bull Racing confirmed Tuesday that Kahne's car number in the Sprint Cup Series will be the No. 4. Kahne will drive for Red Bull Racing in 2011, taking over the former No. 82 car of Scott Speed.

Kahne's open-wheel cars carry the No. 4.

Kahne drove the No. 9 car for Richard Petty Motorsports for all but the final five races of the Cup season before moving over to the No. 83 Red Bull Toyota. Brian Vickers, who missed most of the 2010 season with blood clots, is expected to return to the No. 83. Speed was released by Red Bull earlier this month.
