Jimmie Johnson held off Dale Earnhardt Jr. at the wire on Sunday, taking the checkered flag in the 2013 Daytona 500. Earnhardt Jr. finished second, running out of room as he tried to chase down Johnson on the last lap. Danica Patrick, who ran in the top-10 all day, finished eighth after losing ground on the last lap.
The Daytona 500 started slow enough, with drivers content to wait things out in the early going. A wreck on lap 32 was our first real action of the day as numerous cars got caught up in the mess, leading to the second caution of the 500 -- the first was a debris caution just before the crash.

I don't know or care what her politics are. She is a skilled race car driver. You are obviously a misogynist.
No need to be a smart ass. I hate liberals and I do care what a person’s politics are - like almost everyone elsed on FR.
Just reciprocating. Patrick is a Roman Catholic like quite a few FReepers. Does that bother you also?
Do you care about the politics of all professional athletes?
Some of my ancestors were Catholic (though I am not) and I actually like the current Pope. Anyway, how in the hell did that get dragged into the equation? I like conservative Catholics. What a silly question.I also care about everyone’s politics as it tells me what kind of person they really are. BTW - I also detest Dale Jr. Much more than Danica since he is against someone having or displaying the Rebel Flag.
The same way you dragged liberal into NASCAR drivers.
I like conservative Catholics
They are a minority. http://www.cathnewsusa.com/2012/11/most-catholics-vote-for-obama-but-latinos-and-whites-divided/
I also care about everyone’s politics
Then tell me the politics of all 43 participants in the Daytona 500.
You just love picking a fight don’t you. I’ll pick at libs until the day I die. Afterall, this is a political website.
She tries to keep it low key, but she is no doubt a lib. When asked by a reporter about her thoughts on Obama’s contraception mandate.
“I leave it up to the government to make good decisions for Americans.”
Tell me the politics of all 43 participants in the Daytona 500.
You just love picking a fight don’t you.
I like exposing phonies and misogynists.
What about me is phony? Just because I don’t like someone does not make me a phony. I also love CONSERVATIVE women as I have three of them in my family - Wife and 2 daughters. What the hell is your problem dude?
I’m not a Danica fan. (And I absolutely can’t stand her father who was barred from the paddock at Indy for his antics.)
However she does have my respect as a capable (if journeyman level) driver.
You don’t get 6 top 10 finishes (7 total races) in the Indy 500 without some talent.
Would Paul Menard be running Cup if his name was Paul Smith?
Probably not but he’s a competent driver who mostly runs midpack. I see Danica in the same view.
You're the one with the problem, dudette. I see nothing wrong with a skillful female driving race cars. I don't believe gender should prohibit one from competition when one has displayed the necessary skill to rightfully compete.
Just because I don’t like someone does not make me a phony.
Then tell me the politics of all 43 participants in the Daytona 500.
You sound like a liberal. I do not know the politics of the 43 others drivers. So quit asking that same inane question.
I have tried my best to be civil, but in all honesty, I am done with you. I detest Danica and you are a worthless waste of time.
You're as ignorant as you are phony, misogynist.
You’re foul-mouthed besides all the rest of your faults. Do you use that language in front of the females in your family?
You can tell you’re an independent liberal. FU!!!
Do the females in your family know you swing that way? Your dislike of Danica is more obvious, misogynist!
You are obviously one of those “last word” douche-nozzles. Sorry, but I have run out of F**KS to give.
An iritable Tar Baby.
