Danica Patrick expressed her gratitude for her vote into the NASCAR Sprint All-Star-Race.

For the third time in four years, the racecar driver couldn't be more gracious to everyone who voted her in the race. On Saturday, she took to her Twitter page to post a video by saying her thanks to the fans.

"Oh my gosh, fans, thank you so much," she said. "You have voted me in yet again and the only thing that can be better than that is that I go out there and give you something great to watch. I pass cars, I make it exciting, I make you proud."

Patrick has been through a lot of crazy accidents during her time on the road, something she's grown accustomed to. Speaking to Enstarz, she mentioned that it can be scary, but there's usually a safety route involved.

"I think if you feel like you're going to crash, there is usually enough time to say "Oh shoot." And if you don't, you're like, "I don't know how I got away with that," but I feel pretty lucky," she said. "In Daytona, I had a little bit of a wild ride through the grass after coming together with another car and luckily, it didn't hit walls or flip or hit another car for the most part so you kind of walk away thinking "That sucked...but it could've been worse." So is there a fear? I don't know. It's part of the job and I trust that NASCAR does a good job with trying to make the cars and tracks as safe as possible."

The NASCAR driver then revealed if she would ever give up racing to have a family.

"I wouldn't stop racing to have a family, but I think at some point in time, it could happen where I'm not as passionate about racing and I'd rather do something else and then I would," she said. "But it would only be if my passion for racing wasn't there. But at this point in time I love racing and this is what I want to do."
