Danica, Danica, Danica
Danica was good on CSI:NY Wednesday. She actually had some lines. At first I thought she would just be in a few establishment shots and then the story would go elsewhere, but no. They showed her character in a pinup girl photo shoot but also talking with the detectives and even being a suspect.
Danica was also the focus of attention in the ARCA Lucas Oil Slick Mist 200 last weekend. It was interesting to watch the “learning the ropes” process for new NASCAR drivers. I had not watched much ARCA action before but enjoyed it so intend to watch more. She will race in the Nationwide series on Saturday.
But enough about Danica….
It is Speed Week in Daytona, with lots of racing in the next few days, beginning with the Gatorade Duels this afternoon and culminating in the Daytona 500 Sunday afternoon. There may be a change to the green-white-checkered rule, based at least partially on fan complaints following last weekend’s Shootout ending under caution. Here is an article about that.
Formula 1
The Formula 1 season is still a month away. It starts March 12 in Bahrain. However, check out formula1.com for details about recent debuts and launches for 2010 teams, including several days of test racing in Valencia last week.
On to Indy…
Here is a link to an article (with photos, of course) of the proposed new Indy chassis, called the Delta Wing concept car. My first impression: It looks like a Stealth bomber had intimate relations with the Batmobile.
