    it's not that NASCAR is easy, it's just that is what the slack jawed yokels like to watch here in the US

    lots of crashes and cars that look like the crappy ones they drive ;)

    the hottest thing about Danica is that she drives IRL, if she was a Tennis player she wouldn't be anything special

    Go watch Talladega Nights and switch Gay French man to Smoking Hott Woman and that is what it would be like ;)

    Guess not. Danica won a Formula race yesterday. That's one more victory than Anna got in her pro tennis career (singles, anyway).

    I doubt she has another victory for another 3-5 yrs.
    The only reason she won was because those running in the top 5 had to stop for fuel, where she had stopped 10 laps earlier.
    Her tires were still in good shape, and even with lower fuel level than the guys coming out of the pits she had a comfortable lead and just had to maintain a reasonable lead.
    Sometimes it pays to stay out when the others have to stop, last night was her night.

    That strategy never works for the guys?

    Well yeah, it works all the time. But when guys do it, it's "smart racing". This was "pure dumb luck". :D

    I didn't realize she won because of Ethanol. I am just thankful that the IRL gave her an extra large ethanol tank!!!
