The former Nascar Danica Patrick driver has his dream race.
Patrick, 42, was invited to choose three people, dead or living, to run.
“Well, I think I would like to see how I stood up for Ayrton Senna. He was one of the greats of Formula 1,” said Patrick during a recent appearance on the “Gaines for Girls” podcast from Outkick with Riley Gaines.

Senna, who died in an accident during a race from 1994 to 34, is a Formula 1 legend.
Senna won 41 victories, 65 poles, 19 fastest rounds and 80 podiums and was known for her aggressive driving style.
Patrick then selected one of the largest NASCAR drivers to compete.
Danica Patrick said to Riley Gaines that there are “clear biological differences” between men, women
“Perhaps going out and doorbang with Dale Earnhardt Sr. obviously, I know (Dale Earnhardt Jr.) great. I have led for him. He is a friend, and his wife Amy is great. But, you know, he was known as” the intimidator “. So, it would be a fun person to see, like that?
Earnhardt ran in the Nascar Winston Cup series, now the Nascar Cup Series, from 1975 to 2001.

Earnhardt won 76 Winston Cup races and 24 exhibition events, for 100 combined victories.
Legend is the only pilot in Nascar’s history to win a race in four different and consecutive decades.
Earnhardt, like Senna, died in the race of a skull fracture during a last blow accident during Daytona 500 in 2001 at 49 years old.
In Patrick’s hypothetical race, she faces Senna and Earnhardt in a competitive way and, for her third person, she chose to put someone in her own car.

“Maybe put someone in my car. Who I would have liked to put in my car? I think I would put Jesus in my car. I think that, in all my spiritual practices and my religious experiences, I connected with the energy of Jesus. It has always been like a home, like your best friend. Like someone who is super cool and at your level, but everyone said.
Patrick is one of the most prosperous women in the history of the races.
She is the first woman to win a race in the Indycar series, the first to have a pole position in a race of the NASCAR CUP Series and holds the highest finish of a woman from Indianapolis 500 and Daytona 500, among many other achievements.
