It’s been about a decade since Danica Patrick slipped out of her racing suit and into a skimpy, white bikini for Sports Illustrated Swimsuit, but they’re still enjoying the results.
Sports Illustrated posted a behind-the-scenes video from one of her photo shoots on Tuesday and it will have all of her fans hoping she makes a repeat in the magazine sometime soon.
The female NASCAR driver had never been in a swimsuit for a photo shoot before Sports Illustrated photographed her on the beach on Singer Island in Florida back in 2008. Judging from the results, it probably won’t be her last. (VIDEO: A Look Back At Danica Patrick’s Revved Up Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Shoot)
“This type of shooting is actually really fun. I didn’t know how I would feel coming in,” Danica admitted. Of course, she went on to embrace the opportunity and make the most of it.

“The Swimsuit Issue is something that — I am going to generalize — everybody looks at. I’m just so flattered because it’s just such a unique and prestigious piece to be a part of.”
