Danica Patrick Year Quotations

The experience we have gained over the last year really helped us today. I really had a feel for when I could push and when I needed to be patient and not make mistakes. We just need to build on this momentum.

The Indy 500 was on (TV) every year and my dad used to watch it. I used to watch the start, maybe, then fall asleep. It was too long.

Racing is been my profession since I was 19 years old.

My first Indy 500 was one of my high points. I ended up qualifying fourth and I finished fourth. I had a win in Japan a few years later, and then qualifying for Daytona was great as well.

I spent my whole childhood watching open-wheel racing. I spent years going to England and racing open wheel, coming back and racing open wheel. It's been my world for 20 years and beyond that. For almost my whole life, I've been watching it. I watch it and I think I know how to do it.

I know what it takes to be fast and I feel like every year I learn valuable lessons about how to be better the next time.
