This was the media making excuses for Wanica.
She wasn't assigned that pit stall - she chose it.
The first pit stall is the coveted position - because you can't ever get blocked in.
Also - the driver in the first pit stall gets to hammer the gas and go when work is completed - they can't be caught speeding off pit road.
Ask the other 42 drivers where they would have wanted to pit at Daytona (or most any other track)?
Somehow the media made a huge advantage for Wanica out to be a disadvantage...
