USF1 Wants to Test Danica Patrick


USF1 Wants to Test Danica Patrick

This could get very interesting to say the least. Ken Anderson, one of the guys behind the US Formula One effort admitted that he is interesting having Danica Patrick make some test laps for their F1 team. The reason? Let’s just say he didn’t bring up her driving talent right off the bat.

He was quoted by the Associated Press as saying, “She gets a lot of press.” He went on to add, “Tony George would probably be pretty mad with me if I took her out of IRL but we’ll see.” There has been no comment from Patrick’s camp regarding this wrinkle. It would make logical sense that she would leap at the chance if she was contractually able to do it.

Word on the street is that USF1 team will officially launch next week and early reports say that the team will have a budget of somewhere around 100 million Euros, which we believe is roughly 53 bazillion US dollars.

Stay tuned!
