FEMALE AUTO RACING STAR PATRICK MAKES HISTORY WITH WIN

Danica Patrick became the first female winner in IndyCar history Sunday, taking the Indy Japan 300.

"It's a long time coming. Finally," Patrick, 26, told the Associated Press. "It was a fuel strategy race, but my team called it perfectly for me. I knew I was on the same strategy as Helio (Castroneves) and when I passed him for the lead, I couldn't believe it. This is fabulous."
