    Her Himbo

    It was a pretty good race, actually. I have to admit, I kind of had slotted her off into Kournikova land, but I am delighted to be proven wrong.

    What I really liked, watching the clip, was her husband. Nice to she she has a himbo that isn't all beefcakey, but rather a thin dweeby intellectual looking/sounding guy, not your stereotypical NASCAR meat-head at all. What we need now of course is an article in a men's magazine discussing his wardrobe (& eyewear) choices.
