Lexington, Ohio — Danica Patrick finished 12th in the Honda Indy 200 IRL race Sunday, a day after a confrontation with the other female driver in the race.
Patrick felt Milka Duno cut her off and got in her way several times during Saturday's practice and approached her in the pit area.
Video showed Duno twice throw a white towel in Patrick's face.
Patrick was also shown repeatedly telling Duno, "I just want to talk to you about it!" only to have Duno repeatedly tell her to "go away".
Eventually, Patrick walked away from the area.
Patrick, who has previously confronted fellow drivers Dan Wheldon and Ryan Briscoe after racing incidents, brushed off the latest dustup, saying, "I just wanted to know if she saw me out there."

That works too! They should kiss and make up out!
Scary... she makes commie red look... good.
LOL!!
Um, it's racing, not a Sunday drive. Toughen up Danica.
Don't you need to have some sort of body to be in Playboy or Penthouse? She's got none.
CITGO?
As in, sponsored by Hugo Chavez?
Somebody needs to run the bitch into the wall.
Nonetheless all the racing goobers would head to the convenience store to buy an issue with her laying on a checkered flag.
She’ll disappear for a few months, surgery, diet, exercise.
She’ll look great.
For a stupid communist supporter, she’s hot.
If you watch the video its amazing Milka's crew just looks at Danica like..'yeah we know and its not her first latin tempered fit", they don't defend thier driver.
Danica even says at one point "its not my fault shes slow"
Milka should go back to sport cars and get off the Indy car circuit.
Yep. Milka has been a "rolling chicane" in every series she's ever driven in, as far as I know, but that CITGO sponsorship follows her wherever she goes, so she keeps getting rides despite her near-total lack of racing talent. Danica had a right to be upset. However, confronting Milka about it had pretty much no chance of doing any good, and Danica is already sort of (in)famous for off-track dust-ups like this.
She was a hazard in sports cars, too.
