Hang in there Milka Duno!

Maybe I’m the only goofy guy that sees it this way, but I think there was another little race within the 92nd Indy 500. That race was between Danica Patrick, Sarah Fisher and Milka Duno. Guess who won! Finishing 19th and running at the end was none other than Milka Duno.

With Danica and Sarah out by contact, Milka’s spin near the end of the race let her get underway again with new tires and record her second finish of the season. Obviously she has a long way to go and I’m not suggesting that she is in a class with Danica or Sarah but she does have bragging rights for a few days.

If anyone interviewed her at the end of the race I didn’t see it. Danica got mad as hell, Sarah cried (I understand, but you’ve got to cut that out!) and Milka probably had a grin a mile wide but the press seemed to ignore her. I missed the ”big old self centered TV windbag” (Dave Despain) on Sunday evening due to watching the Coca Cola 600 and I’m hoping that maybe they gave her a little recognition, but I wouldn’t count on it.

I’m on record as declaring that girl race car drivers ROCK. Hang in there Milka, and don’t be too hard on the girls that you beat – we don’t want them to go away mad!!
