WATCH: Danica Patrick Crashes During Daytona 500 Practice
If this is a precursor to the 2015 NASCAR season for Danica Patrick, the steep learning curve continues to seem insurmountable.
With the sport's biggest race this Sunday, Patrick and a few others were caught up in an accident when Denny Hamlin's #11 Toyota tried to shoot the gap between Patrick and another driver, causing the cars behind them in the draft to check up.
Patrick will be forced to a backup car after the incident.
