Danica Patrick Turns Heads Over This ‘Controversial’ Outfit At F1 Race
As fans tuned in for pre-race coverage at the Miami Grand Prix, much of the attention turned to Danica Patrick’s outfit rather than her commentary. The former NASCAR and IndyCar driver, now part of Sky Sports’ F1 team, wore a white one-shoulder mini dress with matching sneakers — a look that quickly sparked backlash online.
Critics compared the dress to a towel or bedsheet, joking that she looked ready for a spa, not a race broadcast. One user quipped, “Did Danica think this was a toga party?” Others slammed her fashion and even tied in her political views, mocking her support for Donald Trump.
Despite that support, Patrick wasn’t seen at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago victory party and later posted a pointed message asking why she wasn’t invited.

Patrick’s F1 commentary has always divided fans — some enjoy her perspective, while others question her expertise. Her Miami appearance only added fuel to that debate.

Meanwhile, McLaren dominated on track, with Oscar Piastri winning and Lando Norris finishing second. Mercedes’ George Russell came in third — though for many, the biggest buzz wasn’t the race, but Danica’s outfit and the online storm it caused.
