How's this for an insult

You may recall Danica Patrick ( Danica Patrick: Danica Patrick First Woman To Win IndyCar Race, Proves She's Not Just A Piece Of Meat ) who last week became the first lady to win an open wheel race (the Indy Japan 300). Last year Danica and teammate Tony Kanaan were qualifying for the Mid-Ohio. After dropping his wife off at the airport, Kanaan qualified third; Danica qualified second. Kanaan's wife had a question for her husband after she heard the qualifying results:

"Could you do me a favor?" she asked. "In our motor home, in the bedroom, go to my closet. All the way in the back of the closet, there's a blue dress. Maybe you should wear it next time you qualify!"

Giulietta is just really nice Giulietta is just really nice Giulietta is just really nice Giulietta is just really nice Giulietta is just really nice
Hey...in 1980's the best rallye car driver was a French woman called Michele Mouton....driving and Audi Quattro

We have no problems with women drivers its not a new thing for us...

Mind you...the way you guys drive in the US, I think even my son Fred would drive better....I followed a car today at 50 miles in the left lane for half hour....geee...in my neck of the woods he would lose his licence for doing that...

Michele Mouton won the 1982 Rallye de Portugal...I was in love with her back then....

Qualifying means nothing...

Kanaan won 5 indy car races in 2007... ...Kanaan ended up finishing 4th and Patrick finished 5th.
To all the hype about Danica, I don't give a hoot about her being a woman. Its about time she earned her paycheck and won a race. Of course, being a member of "Team Green" probably helped a little too. When you have 3 generations of Andriette's giving you advice, its almost hard to lose.

Furthermore: "THERE'S NO CRYING IN INDYCAR!!!"

See you all at Indianapolis, I'll be there w/ my old man. sportin free tickets!

Did you happen to notice she is HOT? I don't care if she can't get out of her own way. She earns her paycheck just sittin' still.
