Comment by jwane on June 9, 2009 at 5:52pm: It was spectacular but not sure about risky. It appeared as though she anticipated Dan moving to the top of the track with her then seized the moment. The reason I think she anticipated it, maybe even set it up is because she reacted so suddenly. Risky is when a rookie sees something like this and says "Hmmm, wonder if I can make it". But her reaction to what she saw looked simply like a veteran move to me.

Comment by Jim Huntington on June 9, 2009 at 9:08am: It is sure looking like Chip and Roger's cars are smoking AGR and AGR does not have the answer. The only wins , if they do come will be from very good and lucky strategy because that gang of four at the top, do not make many mistakes. It must be frustrating as hell for Danica to have her foot all they way down and watch them leaving her. Damn! Maybe they will try some risky wing stuff in upcoming races to give the extra speed?? I was not able to see Danica's pass on Wheldon at lap 192 but I read that it was quite risky and spectacular.

Comment by Tony Osborne on June 9, 2009 at 8:58am: I think we've all got a little bit too expectant. Sixth is great but we're all preying for that second win and have to realise that with the equipment she's got it may never happen.
At the end of the day Danica is doing a fantastic job with the tools she's being given and I imagine she's under quite a lot of pressure off track as well with it being her contract year.
