Danica Patrick feels pressure to win more races

That's one fast chic!

You think there's pressure? At some point she's going to be referred to as the Anna Kournakova of racing. She's lucky sex sells is all I have to say.

She's cute, but she's no Anna Kornikova. Danica is covered in flame-retardant clothes from head to tow...the only thing showing are her eyes. She has a lot of pressure, as being young and a woman, but she's not a sex-laiden Ruskie, that's for sure!

She is over rated. She only races where her car does not have to conform to weight standards like europe where all cars including the driver have to fall within weight spec .. so in her case weight would be added to the car.

In racing its all about weight and speed she is like 50 pounds lighter than the rest of the drivers which is a huge advantage - Indy racing does not account for various weights and off course thats the circuit she only races in - how convientant is that....

Lets take off the speed arrestor plates while were at it and let it all hang out but nooooooooooo

just a cute girl who caught media attention..all show and no go! If she wasn't cute, nobody would pay attention, like Shirley Muldoney, the "winning" drag racer that the media ignores.

Tony George and his IRL board of Directors will not let her win. They are saving that for a rainy day when his league suffers a downfall in attendence and revenues.
Tony and his Boys are a bunch of money hungry businessmen, they know when the time is right to have a chick win.
Danica has proven her skills as a driver, yet she keeps getting a crap car to drive in,
Just like Tony Stewart said in NASCAR, racing is getting just like the WWF, its a money making industry that feeds on fan spending. You have big sponsorship, big name recognition, big race winners and you have fan sentimentals. The big winners like Helio, Sam Hornish, Earnherdt JR, Jimmy Johnson are the money for the series, the sentimentals like the Danica Patricks, Mark Martins, Jeff Burtons, get screwed due to overall $ that the Tony Georges and Bill Frances can make if a JR or Sam wins.

You really have no clue what you are talking about! How does Tony George stop Danica from winning? Danica can't win because she is not good enough. IRL needs fans so bad that they are dying for her to win so they can draw more fans.

i hope she can get her first win next year. im pulling for her.
