Danica Patrick won the IndyCar Japan 300 to become the first female to win an IndyCar race. While this race was won at the end on fuel mileage, that should not lessen her victory. She is not the first driver to win playing the fuel game, and she will not be the last. It is just a part of racing, getting the most out of your equipment.
And while this win is historical, it also gets the proverbial monkey off her back. One announcer made the comment that she is no longer the Anna Kournikova of racing. It is not like Danica had not been successful in her career, gaining many top 5 and top 10 finishes. However, this is the elusive win that she needed to cement her place in racing.
