Forget Danica, Legge's got wins

Well, they are just retreading an AP wire story to put in the sports briefs on the far left of an eight column page, but the headline writer gets it. And this in the frenzy of Danikova hype leading up to the show in Sparta. :p

Here are the lead 'graphs from the AP wire story:

SAN JOSE, Calif. (AP) -- Katherine Legge is becoming a real force in the Toyota Atlantic Series.

The only woman driving in Champ Car's top developmental series pulled off a difficult pass for the lead Sunday and went on to win in the streets of downtown San Jose, her second straight victory and third of the season.

Similar AP Wire article in the Philadelphia Inquirer. The headline over all of the motorsports reports (CCWS, F1, IRL, Atlantics) says "ENGLISHWOMAN WINS SECOND STRAIGHT EVENT."

My 4 yo daughter saw them mention the Atlantics race during the broadcast yesterday and asked if that was "...the race car girl who wins..." :rofl:
