There were some interesting quotes from today's IndyCar Series race at the Milwaukee Mile.................
"I'm not in it to be famous and I'm not in it to make news. I got the check, I got the trophy and 50 points in the bank for the championship. If they want to be on the front page of
USA Today, be my guest. If I ever want attention, I'll just get out of the car and beat the hell out of somebody."
AGR's Tony Kanaan when asked whether his win at the Mile would be overshadowed by the post-race altercation btwn. Danica Patrick and Dan Wheldon
Speaking of the altercation..............here are some quotes regarding what happened..........
"I'd like to brake check Wheldon and just wreck him right now."
AGR's Danica Patrick following an on-track incident on lap 89 when Wheldon tried to pinch Patrick down through turn 1; after the race, she said the following to Wheldon before angrily shoving Wheldon..............
"I just came up to him and said, 'What happened? What was that for? Did you not see me? Why didn't you back off? And he didn't say anything. Then he says, 'Well, you can't get caught out in the marbles.' I said, 'Well, that's a pass, Dan. I got by you, you need to let off and you didn't, you turned into me.' And I told him, 'If you don't think I'm going to remember this, you're crazy. I just grabbed his arm and shoved off. It was nothing violent, though."
Wheldon's response..........."She's probably feeling the pressure (to perform) since her teammates are winning and she's not. She's just feisty; like Barnhart says, what goes around comes around. She nearly put me into the wall at Indy, (so) she's messing with the wrong person if she wants to get feisty."
Why do I get the feeling this ain't over with, especially since we're headed to Texas next week?
