While Danica Patrick is known for being part of Indy Car racing, she has recently taken a stab at NASCAR.  She recently experienced just how heated the racing scene can be.  Did this race just become a little heated, or did someone play dirty?

According to Yahoo, Danica crashed into the wall and hit right off the track at Bristol by Ryan Truex.  She wasn’t sure what to think about the whole situation though.

Even though Danica is mad, she has all the right to be.  Dashboard cam shows that Ryan did turn into her.  While he says he is sorry, I am not sure if I would accept this apology:

“We were racing there and I just came off the corner, got loose, and as I was saving it just came down the hill and got into her. My fault. I mean, I’m sorry. I didn’t want for that to happen. I don’t know if she thinks I did it on purpose. I guess she’s just mad because she was running good. It was an accident. I apologize.”

What do you think?  Just a heated race, or is this just plain dirty?
