Winning option:Any other driver A day after a horrific crash took the focus away from racing and threatened to turn Nascar’s season-opening showcase, the Daytona 500, into an afterthought, Danica Patrick did what she does best. She put the focus right back on her.

While Jimmie Johnson made a statement with a victory in the 55th Daytona 500, Patrick made history by becoming the first woman to lead a lap in a race in Nascar’s top series.

Background

The big news this year is Danica Patrick, the first woman to win pole position at the Daytona 500. Starting the race along side previous winner Jeff Gordon (1997) she be trying for her most important win of her career in NASCAR racing. Following yesterday's last lap crash, there'll be a lot of interest in today's race.

Only 3 pole sitters have won since 1987, so a win by Patrick or Gordon is still unlikely. The next six starters have also been provided with an option, as well as one for all other drivers. Question should suspend about an hour after the start of the race.
