Did you see Danicas interview today after falling out of the race? She talked like she is the best most experienced driver in the IRL, and that everyone else was useless and un-talented.

I knew that gimmie fuel milege win would go to her head, but this was in record time. I thought I lost all respect for her when she posed in a number of magazines despite started her IRL career by saying she wanted to be known for her driving and not her looks and wouldnt do those types of photo shoots. I now have lost even more respect.

She is awful, and would get buried in Nascar if she made the jump. She would get buried in the IRL if she wasnt in top tier equipment. Over-rated, x50.

On the flip side, congrats to Ashley Force. While at Goodyear I got to meet the Forces, and they are great people.

I didnt hear that in the interview. From the few IRL races that I have watched with her in it, she does pretty well.I wouldnt consider that win a "gimmie". I think the team worked hard for it and was in the right place at the right time at the end. They took a gamble on it and it payed off. Congratulations to Danica`s team on the win.
That must have been pretty cool for the Force family. What a way to lose! Which really isn't a loss.

Danica is hotter. I don't care if she has an attitude or not, she is hot.

Hotter than Tony Stewart, yes. Hotter than Ashley Force. Absolutely not.

She will get schooled in F1

completely agree. Look at all the troubles the most experienced drivers in the world have had adjusting to the new cars. She has it good now. A move would be career suicide.

F1?!?

BUAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

C'mon now.. I like Danica as an IRL driver... on second thought... maybe thats just what she needs to bring the ego down a notch?

A single F1 race would bring her ego down about 20 notches.

Id be willing to bet she could run season after season and never get a driver point.

Remember what happened to Michael Andretti when he raced F1 in 93, he got schooled and left after one year. Ths was after he won a CART championship in 91. She has no chance.

F1 is going to be a wake up call for her. But to take the credit away for a win for fuel mileage what the h**l how many races have been won in Cart,IRL,Nascar,F1,Usac, by the big names, alot. Give her a break shes racing with the big boys were not. Plus she is one FINE looking race car driver if you ask me!

She deserves it with the attitude she has. Work with her and you'll understand. She is running with what is left of open wheel racing in the US, in top notch equipment, and she can only manage a fuel mileage win.

No break from me.

But yes, she races for a living, something I could only dream of. Must be fun...

Meaning?

I have worked in Goodyear's race tire division, and have numerous engineering friends in the IRL, mainly a good friend I went to school with who works for Pi Research.

Most if not all drivers are arrogant asses behind the scenes, but Danica brings it to a new level. Trust me. She can drive, but realize she also has the best equipment to do so. Rahal Letterman also had good equipment while she was there. This is definitely not a case of the driver being better than the equipment...

I gave up interest when she finally won and didn't rip off here driving suit and run around in her sports bra like the soccer player did, instead she cries like a girl!

Ruined my day!
