Danica Patrick Finishes 4th in NASCAR Las Vegas

[IL]

Danica Patrick made history with a 4th-place finish Saturday at Las Vegas. The 28-year-old leapfrogged from a career best finish of 14th to her first top five in NASCAR. She's the first woman driver to finish that high since Sara Christian finished 5th in a race at Heidelberg, Pennsylvania, in 1949 during the first season of what is now the Sprint Cup Series.
