Five Reasons Why Danica Patrick Should Just Retire Already
By Asher Fair
Lack Of Enjoyment
In order to put your life on the line and drive at over 200 miles per hour on a weekly basis, you need to have a lot of enjoyment and passion for what you do. Danica Patrick just doesn’t have that passion anymore, and she has said so herself.
"“As long as it’s fun – and it hasn’t been super fun lately. But every year I start the year, I always have hope that it’s going to be the year that things are going to click. I understand my career hasn’t progressed. Maybe it’s regressed? Why is that? Am I worse driver than I was a couple of years ago? Probably not. I don’t think anybody gets worse. So it’s really a matter of all the factors around you.”"
