She publicly admitted trying to make someone crash
And thats never happened before?
Jeff Gordon recently admitted wrecking another driver. He was fined $100k and docked 25 points and got a month of probation and a lot of people think he got off light but actually all that was for his part in the post race brawl, not for wrecking Bowyer to which he admitted wrecking on purpose. Tony Stewart about a month earlier admitted to causing a huge wreck at Talladega although he said he screwed up. Nothing happened to Stewart. But in the past Stewart has not only admitted to wrecking other drivers but has publicly vowed to keep doing it.

Earnhardt Sr.:
One week later, he provided NASCAR with one of its most controversial moments. At the August Bristol race, Earnhardt found himself in contention to win his first short track race since Martinsville in 1995. When a caution came out with 15 laps to go, leader Terry Labonte got hit from behind by the lapped car of Darrell Waltrip. His spin put Earnhardt in the lead with 5 cars between him and Labonte with 5 laps to go. Labonte had four fresh tires and Earnhardt was driving on old tires, which made Earnhardt's car considerably slower. Labonte caught Earnhardt and passed him coming to the white flag, but Earnhardt drove hard into turn two, bumping Labonte and spinning him around. Dale went on to collect the win while spectators booed and made obscene gestures. I didn't mean to turn him around, I just wanted to rattle his cage", Earnhardt said of the incident. Earnhardt finished 7th in the standings that year, and looked like a contender again.

If Danica Patrick should be kicked out of NASCAR, then so should a lot of other male drivers.
