Indy 500: Danica Patrick

[mike4949]

Right now, I'm watching the Indy 500. One of the main reasons is a rookie driver named: Danica Patrick. She's a good driver, currently in 8th in the race, but a pretty hot chick. She was being promoted like hell, because lets face it, for the last 15 years, NASCAR has been the great American racing. Indy, CART, F1 has become back page in the US. The possibility is that she can help bring big views back to this great race. Do you think it's good that She is getting high promotion for this race, or will she be enough to get people to watch Indy racing again?

She almost won the race. If it was not for the caution on lap 190. She finished in 4th place. The girl is good.

Over-rated!!!

Really!!

I have to say, she did well at the end when she led 16 laps. She did what she was brought in to do, give Indy 500 a 40 % increase in TV ratings(first since 1997).
