Danica Patrick led Saturday's NASCAR Nationwide Series race in Montreal for about 20 laps until she ran over a shoe that was thrown onto the race track.
Danica ran right over the shoe, which seemed harmless enough, until she started having issues with her track bar and had to make an extra stop in the pits so her crew could make adjustments.
The extra stop cost Danica the lead and probably her best shot at winning the race, all because some jerk decided to throw a shoe onto the track. The funny thing is the shoe probably would have done less damage if it hit the car directly.
