They really toned down the hype the last 2 races. I wonder why that is? Perhaps not wanting to draw attention to the fact she's not doing well?
Sunday's race in California, I was surprised to see that they only showed Danica's status once or twice, just like they would any other driver. Some of the other back-of-the-pack cars get a little air time because their sponsors pay to make sure Fox or ESPN show their logo once or twice a race, and this time, Danica appeared to be no different.
Heck, if it wasn't for that payola, we'd never know Long John Silver's or Taco Bell even sponsors a car.
