As she exited her car after her first Indianapolis 500 pole day qualifying attempt on Saturday, Danica Patrick was frustrated.
Very frustrated.

Danica Patrick being booed? What the heck?

I agree. Not so much the face comment because it’s not necessary, but this is mostly in jest. She has a cut figure and is not quite as cute in the face, but then I’m not God’s gift to women either, so it evens out.
You’re entitled to your opinion. I’ve never been a conventional person. There’s something very attractive in some women that you can’t put your finger on.
I’m not saying Danica actually fits in that category, but she isn’t a “dog” as far as I am concerned. And I’m not one to buy into the beauty of women broadly considered to be incredibly beautiful either.
Cuteness and the xQuotient goes a long way with me.
I have a discerning intellect. Oh and I’m brilliant too. /s ;-)
Take care bud.
Oh advise of my attorney, “No comment...” :-)
I dunno. Your mostly right, I guess. But the specimen in question seems like a real piece of work regardless.
While Danica is attractive, that picture is photoshopped. She is not nearly that slender and her legs aren’t nearly that long.
She’s only 5’2”
Look, I don’t disagree. I think she made a mistake here. Don’t take my attempts at light humor for more than they are.
You take care...
Very frustrated.
Then do something about it.
She’s short. When she was a few years younger, I think she may have fit into that photo mold. I have no way of knowing what games were played with this photo if any, but I’m not here to claim she’s everything that photo shows. The photo is appealing, and I’m not put off by it.
Laz, she's desperate. Better go for it right now.
Bikini and high heels? Not classy! Looks like a bimbo.
Feisty thing.. good for her. If she didn’t take this ‘seriesly’, she shouldn’t be out there... doing 224 mph is a good day for most.. but not today and not for her.
Hope everyone stays in one piece and the weather cooperates.
Miz Austen, I think it’s reasoned to judge the photo in part based on the idea other drivers work hard too, and don’t participate in this sort of thing. That’s an entirely valid point of view.
It’s also valid to judge this thinking it’s over the line. I can see why some folks would see it that way. I myself see some truth in that.
And it’s also okay for some old geezers to smile and make jokes about it on a lazy Saturday afternoon.
You take care...
LOL! Have a great weekend.
You too Jane. All the best...

The little brat needs to go back to pole dancing.
If she is in, hope she gets flat tire by the 10 lap.
“There’s no stability or grip. It’s just scary, really scary ... It’s awful, really awful. I think I’m still shaking.” And when her comments were played over the track PA, she was booed.
And that is the reason imo that she’ll never make it in NASCAR. You have to hang those cars out on the edge and she couldn’t do that when she was running the Nationwide car for Jr. Practice and experience are needed but you get a lot of the feel from days in the lower classifications.
