Danica Patrick Is Fired Up For This Weekend's Race In Las Vegas
Yesterday at 09:34 PM
A lot of Danica Patrick's social media activity pertains to politics, but she's still involved in broadcasting.
This weekend, Patrick will be in Sin City for the Las Vegas GP. She'll be on the call for Sky Sports, and it's going to be a late night. The race doesn't start until 10 p.m. local time, meaning it will be 1 a.m. ET when things get revved up. You can see the full schedule for this weekend here.
In the meantime, you can also check out Patrick, who appeared in a humorous promo for the event alongside her Sky Sports colleagues.
"Everything is more wild and crazy in Vegas…. Watch the @f1 race on @espn this Saturday night!!!!! @skysportsf1," Patrick captioned the post on her Instagram.

It had actually been three weeks since Patrick had last posted about something racing related. On Oct. 28, she shared photos on Instagram from her work calling Formula 1 in Mexico City.
Since then, there has been a lot of political content on the former NASCAR and IndyCar driver's page. Not shy about her right-leaning views, Patrick cast her vote for Donald Trump in the presidential election earlier this month.
Incredibly, the 42-year-old said this is the first time in her life she's voted for president. Patrick did more than just support Trump at the polls though; she also campaigned for him on the road.
"These are some of the pictures from the last 2 weeks of campaigning. What a wildly unexpected turn of events for me. It always felt like a calling. And of course, an honor," Patrick wrote in a post last Friday. "I realized that I campaigned in every swing state except for Michigan!!!! (Arizona, Nevada, Georgia, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin).
"I was suppose to speak at the last Trump rally in Grand Rapids but it was already midnight when we arrived in the Trump motorcade since I was on Trump Force 1, and the boss went straight on stage. As he should. I know it took so many people to accomplish what we did, but he won every swing state…. and that feels pretty damn good."
