NASCAR’s Five Modern Day Villains
Jerome Miron-USA TODAY Sports
Danica Patrick
When Danica Patrick does get screen time during a typical race and lately that hasn’t been very often, she seems to let it go to waste by giving fans more reasons to hate her than love her. It’s almost like TV networks only choose to highlight her for a funny profanity laden message to her crew chief or when she attempts to wreck another driver, but ends up only damaging her car.
It’s not that everyone hates her.
In fact a lot of people like her for the positive change she is bringing to the sport as a female driver. Unfortunately for those that follow her on the never ending quest for change in auto racing, her moments of achievement in the sport are far outweighed by her moments of compulsive anger and near blatant stupidity.
It will get your blood boiling pretty quickly, especially if her next target is your favorite driver.
