Well, whether you like her or not, you are going to be seeing alot of Danica Patrick over the next few weeks.
If you follow CSI:NY, you'll be seeing Danica playing the role of along side Antonia Sabato Jr. making his first TV appearance since appearing on his own reality TV show My Antonio.
Satabo Jr. will be playing Davi Santos alongside Danica Patrick who will be playing Liza Gray. I guess they will be "Formula car drivers" and will get into a fiery crash while driving an "expedition race" through New York City.
That episode will air February 10th on CBS.
On top of that, some sexy photos of the princess have been leaked ahead of her GoDaddy.com commercial that will air during the Super Bowl on February 7th. Apparently she'll be spoofing various "classics" like Flashdance and Wierd Science.
I haven't seen any of these movies, well I've seen part of Flashdance, but I was watching TV with my mom, and once they started talking about strippers and the language got bad, it got a slightly awkward.
As much as I could live with or without Danica, I realize her value to the IRL and the Izod Indycar Series. Her sex appeal and her uniqueness appeals to the masses. Even though she hasn't been shown on television in 2009 as the face of the IRL, she still is the face of the Izod Indycar Series in the public eye. Seeing her on television, especially networks that don't show IICS races, can only be a good thing. It has the possibility of getting a couple new faces following Danica and following the IICS.
Now, with the Izod sponsorship, I hope they have some pull with NBC and ABC and CBS and FOX to get some Indycar talent onto some of their shows.
Why not have Danica Patrick guest star on Two and a Half Men? She could catch the eye of Charlie Sheens on screen brother, simply for him to find that he can't keep up with the speed at which she lives?
How about getting Tony Kanaan and Hideki Mutoh into an episode of Desperate Housewives? He might not be able to get a girlfriend, but TK can set Hideki up with some one night stands.
What about getting Graham Rahal, Ryan Hunter-Reay, Justin Wilson, Dario Franchitti, Will Power, and Ed Carpenter to join Extreme Makeover: Home Edition in demolishing a house. Then the IRL can donate a few thousand bucks to the family and the new house.
Milka Duno could play a depressed Indycar Driver who needs to be treated by Dr. House.
What about having Graham Rahal making an appearance on the Young & The Restless or having him host SNL? Hell, if Wayne Gretzky could do it, why can't a handsome, articulate Graham Rahal do it?
Point is that seeing these drivers on various network TV shows would help grow the Indycar brand, as well as getting the drivers known to the public. Instead of solely doing it on air, let other people take advantage of the drivers in a way that helps the series grow.
Positive growth of the drivers means a positive growth for the Izod Indycar Series.

I'd pay money to see Paul Tracy and (insert any other driver here) on the Amazing Race
How about a reality show?
I dunno...first off Danica isn't doing THAT much for Indycar, because if she was, they would be on Network TV all year long, not just a few select events and their ratings wouldn't be in the toilet. Danica's effect is overrated, and was the wrong horse to bet on in my opinion.
Also, as actors go, racing drivers are better than the local janitor as actors, but that maybe about it. Get them on shows maybe like "Are You Smarter than a 5th Grader?" or the Bachelor (can you see a young Graham Rahal with 25 women??) and maybe something good happens, but in the end, if the racing product sucks as it much as it has on occasion in the last 2 years, we are dead...
