Danica Patrick has big plans for when she's done racing

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. — This offseason, Danica Patrick launched her Warrior brand of athletic wear through the Home Shopping Network. She has further plans to expand the line, both moving slightly upscale and to other retailers.
This offseason, Danica Patrick wrote a book (release date in the future) about healthy living, including not just directions on how to evaluate and cook healthy food, but how to view food as medicine for the body.
This offseason, as part of the book, Danica Patrick designed a workout routine that she is currently testing via 700 people online, from teenagers to her own nearly 60-year-old mother. It comes complete with message board motivation and direct advice and discussions with Patrick. It’s intense.
This offseason, Danica Patrick moved forward with the winery she bought a few years back and has since developed in Sonoma County, Calif. A mailing list has been established with an eye on the 2014 vintage moving to stores and restaurants across the country. Somnium Wines (“Dream” in Latin) is an ambitious attempt at creating a high-end, boutique brand.

This offseason, Danica Patrick had four days off, total, which she used to go Mexico on vacation. The rest of the time she was preparing for the 2017 NASCAR season, including Sunday’s running of the Daytona 500. If early indications mean anything – a fourth-place-finish in last week’s Clash and a sixth in Thursday’s Duel – she didn’t miss a beat on that, either. She starts in the seventh row for the 500.
“It’s been a pretty good start. I’ve had my best finishes in NASCAR,” Patrick said while sitting at a table outside her motorhome in the Daytona infield Friday afternoon. “And I get it, those are the Clash and the Duel and not the full race, but I didn’t finish fourth and sixth ever before.”
We’ll see if that translates to the Great American Race. We’ll also see how her other budding businesses translate in those worlds, although those seem like perfect fits.
Know this regardless: at age 34, Danica Patrick is building an empire off a health and fitness (and a little wine) brand that comes in heavy on authenticity, expertise and passion. She won’t race forever. The fame that came with being a racer, however, may allow her to inspire proper diets, exhaustive workouts and the achievement of personal goals for a long, long time.
“Three hundred and sixty degrees,” she said of her lifestyle vision.
It isn’t even about having people lose weight or gain strength or feel fulfilled. Patrick wants everything to go further, to get her clients “mentally fit enough to do it.” She is unlocking internal power in every way imaginable.
Around NASCAR, Patrick remains an uncertainty. This is her fifth full-time season on the Cup circuit and the results haven’t been great. Not just zero victories, but no postseason appearances and a dearth of even top-10 finishes – just six and none last year.
Despite being one of the most marketable and popular drivers here, she lost her GoDaddy sponsorship after the 2015 season and then saw Nature’s Bakery bail just one season into a three-year deal after 2016.
Patrick doesn’t need to be reminded of the struggles. As is her style, she attacks everything directly and is well aware of the idea that starting all these businesses will spur questions that she is setting herself up for a post-racing life. There’s no need to connect the dots, though.
“I’d be considering how long I want to race whether I have anything else to do or not,” she notes.
And how long is that?
“I don’t know,” Patrick told Yahoo Sports. “I want to race and have fun and running 20th and in back is not fun. I want to do better. And if it doesn’t start to go better then it’s not worth it. I’m not out there to just be a car in the field. I don’t have to race because I need the money. I don’t have to do any of that.

“If it goes better … as I was saying the other night, if it goes really well, I’ll think about how much longer I want to do it because that’s the fun,” she continued. “I do this. I love this. It’s one of those things that I still love and want to do. And I just believe in myself. I believe I can do it. I have come a long way.”
But if this year is like last year, when she finished 24th in the standings?
“No, that thought that doesn’t come to mind,” Patrick said. “In the next couple years if it’s not going great, then [I’ll] look at it, because it’s been more than a couple years, it’s been a good handful of years. It’s been too long.
“The frustrating thing is, a couple years ago we were in the top 12 and qualifying well,” she continued. “And we were in the top 15 … and I feel like I am a better driver than I was a couple of years ago.”

 

Daytona 500 promo spot is 14th Super Bowl ad for Danica Patrick

Danica Patrick will appear in her 14th Super Bowl commercial on Sunday, but her first in three years.
Danica Patrick will appear in her record 14th Super Bowl television ad Sunday, but in this one she will be playing a role she has lived several times.
Patrick is among the drivers in the Fox Sports ad to promote the Daytona 500. The "Daytona Day" ad will debut during the Super Bowl. The ad shows Patrick among the drivers walking on a platform through a crowd as part of driver introductions for the race.
"It's just a natural fit for Fox to promote the Daytona 500 during the broadcast of the Super Bowl, and it's great that I was included," Patrick said in a statement. "I'm fortunate to have been in so many Super Bowl ads over the years."
While what Patrick has worn in some of her ads for GoDaddy has created talk for being revealing, what she wears in the Fox ad might create a little talk for a different reason.


Patrick is in her Nature's Bakery driver uniform in the ad, which was shot before sponsor Nature's Bakery on Jan. 19 terminated its agreement to sponsor Patrick this season.
This will be the first time in three years that Patrick has appeared in a Super Bowl ad. She was featured annually in commercials for GoDaddy from 2007 to 2014 and was supposed to appear in an ad in 2015, but GoDaddy pulled the ad amid concerns that it promoted puppy mills.
"There have been some pretty memorable commercial shoots, from body paint to muscle suits and a whole lot more, " Patrick said.
"The Fox shoot was a bit tamer than some I've been a part of before, but the spot is a great reminder that the Daytona 500 is right around the corner."

 

Happy Daytona Day!

Danica Patrick Tabs New NASCAR Rules As Reason For Daytona 500 Crash

by Joshua Schrock on Sun, Feb 26, 2017

Danica Patrick was right in the thick of Sunday’s Daytona 500 when she was forced to exit following a 17-car crash that began when Jimmie Johnson’s No. 48 car was struck by Trevor Bayne’s No. 6 car. After she was cleared by medical personnel, Patrick spoke with For The Win’s Michelle R. Martinelli and put the blame for the crash on NASCAR’s new rule changes, specifically the rule that created staged racing. “The stages are definitely going to add to it,” Patrick said per Martinelli, “because not only is it creating a reason to push at certain points in the race that aren’t anything but the last 20, but you’re also seeing it shuffling the grid up.” But, that wasn’t the only new rule that Patrick blamed for 15 of the 40 cars being knocked out of “The Great American Race” with a quarter of the laps remaining.

After an accident, teams now have a five-minute time limit on repairs. The car must be able to return to the track at minimum speed within that time frame or the car is out of the race. “What you’re seeing is the product of the five-minute clock,” Patrick said. “You’re seeing a product of the new rules of having to go to the infield care center if you don’t finish the race.

I’m totally fine. I drove my car back to the garage. I never would have come to the infield care center if not for the new protocols, so I’m all for being all well, but it’s probably a bit much.” The driver of the No. 10 Ford didn’t put all of the blame on the new rules, though, as she admitted that crashes are more likely to happen on superspeedway tracks due to cars being bunched together.

It wasn’t all crashes on Sunday, however, as Kurt Busch took home his first Daytona 500 victory by edging out Kyle Larson on the final lap. Thumbnail photo via Jasen Vinlove/USA TODAY Sports Images
