Petersen, 26, joined Racing in an August trade with the Houston Dash and would have become a free agent after the season.
"We are thrilled for Courtney to be in Louisville through next season," Racing general manager Ryan Dell said. "Her experience and impact will continue to push our club forward."
Petersen has recorded one goal and six assists in 71 NWSL appearances with the Orlando Pride (2020-22), Dash (2023-24) and Louisville. She was the No. 7 overall pick in the 2020 draft out of the University of Virginia.
