With her out a significant amount of interest in the sport from casual fans would have gone away. With her in, it will still be all Danica, all the time, but we all benefit from the increased coverage and exposure.

I would even bet that if she makes the jump to cup next year, she'll be back as a one-off for the 500.

As for me, I'm going to root for Ed Carpenter and Team Sarah. What a story that would be if he were to win.
