Danica Patrick
Danica Patrick dropped out of high school to move to England to further her racing career. That’s incredible in itself, but what makes it even more incredible is that it worked! How is a teenage girl from Wisconsin supposed to make it Formula One racing? Well, she did, and she used that success to return to America and Indy Car.
After spending a few years in the relatively niche Indy racing scene, Patrick made the jump to the big time and NASCAR. During her racing career, Patrick was making just as much money off the track as she was on it. She’s appeared as the official spokesperson for GoDaddy.com, appeared as a commentator on Fox’s NASCAR coverage, and endorsed many other products.
