Seriously, you sound like a psychic the way you give minimal information so that way if something similar happens you sound like you knew all along.

So EE, the news appears to be breaking right now on Twitter by Curt Cavin that Danica is staying at AGR. Deal done, paperwork to be finalized.
So how is it you like your crow served?It isn't the car Danica...it is the space between the steering wheel and the seat.

Going to NASCAR, switching to Ganassi, staying at AGR might possibly be the worst choice of all. All her words were focused on sponsorship, well in Danica's case, it shouldn't be a matter of finding money to have a car, but rather a matter of salaries, I don't understand why she wouldn't want some real chances of oval wins with Ganassi.

Right now Chip has two proven winners. If one leaves then he will want another proven winner, or someone with real potential to be one.
'Stompin Danica' does not fit that bill.
Taxi Cab racing? I very much doubt it.
She does not appear to like really close wheel to wheel racing for more than a lap or two at the best. That is a fact of life with the taxi cabs.
Sheer physical strength and endurance.
There is no power steering in those cars as far as I know.
She is quite small and I doubt she has the strength to last 500 miles in stockers especially on tracks like Bristol, Martinsville or the road courses.
This is not a knock at women drivers as other women have been quite good in the taxi cabs.
(I refuse to us the proper name for the taxi cabs and a moderator won't let me use my favourite term and I followed them in the 50's.)
Basically AGR is her best bet and most likely bet as Mikey does not apear to be the sharpest knife in the drawer but sponsorship money talks, especially if some can be moved to other parts of the operation.
OK everybody tear me apart. I know DF would but we have lost him.
I know one forum he posts on and he has toned it down a bit there.
At 19:15 Saturday, the FIA are announcing a new WRC event for 2025 at Sardegna. The event, I don't know - perhaps Paraguay.
