IndyCar Drivers Danica Patrick, Milka Duno Get into Brawl
July 21, 2008 by
Danica Patrick and her rise in the Indy Car circuit has been a big story for years. But Danica Patrick has hit some speed bumps along the way, with her most recent being a fight between her and fellow female Indy driver Milka Duno. Danica Patrick and Milka Duno's fight took place on the
Saturday morning practice run for the Honda Indy 200 at Ohio. There, Danica Patrick confronted Milka Duno over Duno's slow driving at the practice session, in which Patrick couldn't pass Duno. When the words got too heavy, Milka Duno struck back at Danica Patrick.
Though no punches were thrown, Milka Duno did yell at Patrick to "go away" on several occasions. Patrick didn't leave however, asking Dano if she even saw Patrick and saying "Are you just slow?" Soon enough, Dano became more upset and used her towel to try and hit Patrick's face, snapping it at her twice.
The verbal exchanges between Duno and Patrick continued for a minute until they were finally separated. But by then, there was enough caught on tape to put on Youtube and other outlets.
Patrick has already gotten into a few confrontations with other drivers this season, having come up to Dan Wheldon and Ryan Briscoe after racing incidents before. These past incidents eventually caused Patrick to swear off getting that upset on the track in May. This latest incident undercuts that promise from Patrick. However, since Duno is a fellow female driver, this fight between Patrick and Duno has already gotten the "cat fight" label, unlike her other confrontation.
Patrick made headlines as the first female Indy Car driver, while Duno has been trying to make headway as the second. Duno comes from Venezuela, where she has a very big following
In the actual race on Sunday, Patrick finished 12'th and Duno finished 23'rd below winner Ryan Briscoe.
