the Cup and Truck series move to Las Vegas this weekend .... I'm really interested in seeing how Hailie Deegan does in Friday night's NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series Race she drives the No 13 Ford F-150 for ThorSport Racing.... this season should tell if she has what it takes to move into the upper echelon group of drivers
She's a nice girl and has interesting YouTube videos but I believe her celebrity status will be greater than her driving success, but time will sure tell.

Right, and my predictions became true with Danica.

Comparing the two, the difference with Hailie is that she is a real nice person. I don't think she'll be cussing anyone out like Danica did. Although she can sure stand up for herself, lol.

Danica actually had a fairly respectable Indy career
12th 9th 7th 6th 5th & 10th in the championship across 6 seasons is more than respectable throw in a race win as well and better than a lot of drivers achieve.
Nascar was a lot different and seems to be what everyone remembers of her for.

Have had a number of women drivers race supercars in Aus probably the best known would be Simona de Silvestro, she raced 3 full season and a number of one off drives. Best championship result was 19th and a 7th and 10th were her best race results in 91 starts. She too has had a far more successful Indy career with 13 top ten and a podium from 71 starts.

Danica's Indy record gave many of us high hopes for her .... Indy racing requires precision driving, no fender rubbing .... I believe that she had trouble adapting to the difference
