Danica Patrick flew off the rails a bit during the 2012 Aaron's 312 at Talladega on Saturday. Late in the race, she intentionally bumped into Sam Hornish Jr.'s No. 11 car, despite having a clear path around. The "accident" should only add more fuel to what is one NASCAR's most heated rivalries.
You can check out the video below after the jump.
Suffice it to say, the low blow has caused somewhat of an uproar within the racing community. Hornish Jr. described his relationship with Patrick before the race and it is clear there is no love lost. SB Nation's resident racing enthusiast Jeff Gluck was on hand to give his impressions.
Oh WOW. I just saw the replay of the Danica/Hornish thing. Damn, that was totally blatant retaliation at high speed.
