Red Bull Racing announced today that Sprint Cup Series driver Brian Vickers will miss Sunday's Autism Speaks 400 at Dover International Speedway because of a recent diagnosis of a medical condition.

Casey Mears has been tabbed to fill in for Vickers in the No. 83 Red Bull Toyota at Dover.

"It is unfortunate that I will not be able to participate in the Dover race," Vickers said in the release. "Casey is a good friend of mine, and I know he will do his best for the No. 83 team this weekend."

Vickers sits 20th in the Sprint Cup Series standings.

Mears raced full-time in the Sprint Cup Series from 2003-09, spending time with Chip Ganassi Racing, Hendrick Motorsports and Richard Childress Racing.

He has made 254 career Sprint Cup Series starts. He was released after spending the 2009 season with Childress. He has made two starts this season in the Sprint Cup Series, one for Tommy Baldwin Racing and one for Keyed Up Motorsports. He has attempted to make six other events.

Mears' lone Sprint Cup Series victory came in 2007 when he was racing for Hendrick Motorsports.

"Our main concern right now is with Brian and his health and recovery," said Red Bull Racing general manager and vice president Jay Frye. "All things are looking good at the moment; this is just a minor setback. We appreciate Casey filling in this weekend and know he will represent the team well."
