Lexington, Ohio — Danica Patrick finished 12th in the Honda Indy 200 IRL race Sunday, a day after a confrontation with the other female driver in the race.
Patrick felt Milka Duno cut her off and got in her way several times during Saturday's practice and approached her in the pit area.

Video showed Duno twice throw a white towel in Patrick's face.
Patrick was also shown repeatedly telling Duno, "I just want to talk to you about it!" only to have Duno repeatedly tell her to "go away".
Eventually, Patrick walked away from the area.
Patrick, who has previously confronted fellow drivers Dan Wheldon and Ryan Briscoe after racing incidents, brushed off the latest dustup, saying, "I just wanted to know if she saw me out there."
