Danica Patrick?

Question

Why did Danica Patrick freak out on that girl the other day. I know the girl cut her off, but does Patrick think she is the first person in the world to ever get cut off in a race. She said that she was just going over to talk to her about it, but she was the on yelling and swearing. Does she think just because she is a girl, she has the right to complain to everyone about every little thing?

Answer 1

Danica's intent was to yell and scream, until Milka threw a towel at her twice,then the little poodle that was yapping suddenly backed down

Answer 2

if she smacked her. she would been suspended. it would be better off in the ring.  oh which one do you prefer. a cage match. or a chicago street fight. i would pick danica to win. my ex 5 ft 4. back then. i called her lethal. she was lethal.

Answer 3

Duno is a brilliant talented lady, but IRL cars aren't about being a lady. She's in over head. WAY over her head. She blatantly blocked Danica several times. Then chopped when Danica was fully along side. I applaud Danica for her self control. I'd been in there, woman or no, with a wrench or a fist. Danica is competing with men, that aren't gentlemen. She's gotta be ornery. Good for her and Paul.

Answer 4

Danica is the most overrated, boring snoozer in sports. Watching her overagressive style of handling things makes me wish everyone would throw a towel at her (twice). I just wish I could throw a few also! When she won her first race a couple of months ago you would have thought she was the next racing legend. I said, hey about time!

Answer 5

OMG!!!!! Why do we keep having this question come up?  Had this been two of the guys, a cameraman  wouldnt have even wasted his time filming it and we certainly wouldnt be wasting time talking about it.  Let it alone and lets talk about something relative to anything!

Answer 6

It is called fame she has a big head now.

Answer 7

Thats Danica.

She thinks everyone else is always at fault. She can do no wrong, everyone should get out of her way. She constantly whines.

I'd like to see her compete in Nascar, where anyone and everyone gets bumped out of the way.

Answer 8

She gives girls in pro sports a bad rep. She is acting like a spoiled child. It was one race. Geeze. Lets move on.

Answer 9

Danica has a major temper and it gets the best of her and makes her look real bad.  It seems like she has major PMS (once a month) because she has some incident with another driver around the same times each month.

Women who race and can not keep their mouths shut should only be able to race 3 weeks out of the month.

Though you must admit, it would have been real cool to see a cat fight.

raider33, you have to watch the video of the practice. The last race was on ABC and not sure if that race is on espn360.com. In the last race they've shown the video of the practice. I don't know if they have it on youtube. I only saw the spar video at youtube. During practice Danica caught up with the slow Milka Duno and attempting to pass but Milka blocked her (this is only practice not the actual race). So Danica slowed backed and made a big gap between her and Milka. Danica caught up with the slow driving Milka and again she got blocked.  I think this happened 2-3 times. When Danica finally got the chance to pass, halfway through Milka moved down inside and almost made contact with Danica's car.

The only thing that Danica did wrong was talk it over by the pit. That's it! There is always a driver-to-driver conversation. Just that Milka overreacted. She might be looking for a media coverage. This is nothing compared to Tony Kanaan and Sam Hornish, jr. spar and that involved shoving even Sam's dad got involved.

Watch the video of the spar on youtube.com

Danica calmly asked Milka did you see me? Milka overreacted rightaway and angrily answered Danica. Danica was calm throughout and while Milka was in violent mode and threw a towel twice in her face and then hid behind her crew. Danica never was in violent mode. She just wanted to know if she saw her. Danica never spat on Milka as some story stated. Milka was the one overreacting ( not sure if Milka wanted media attention here). Danica calmly left without retalliating on Milka.

When they interview Milka Duno. She tried to imply that Danica was looking for a fight and that is totally untrue. Danica was calm and Milka was in violent mode from the start looking for a fight.

A lot of people say that when she (danica) makes mistakes she always blame somebody. That is not true. She always radio her crew "I'm so sorry". She always apologize. Of course many will not know that. Danica doesn't have to call the media and say I apologized. Take for instance when she skidded on Dixon's pit not many knew that after the race she personally went to Dixon's crew and apologized for her error. I just found out about that when I was watch espn360's race qualification. Scott goodyear briefly mentioned it.

Answer 11

exactly, she thinks she is special cuz she won a race, and she is female. when she fights with the men, they cant do anything, i was kinda hoping that girl beat the sh*it out of her!
