They seriously asked him about their relationship during media week. We need to get to racing real soon. Anyhow, for those of you interested.

There you go , I wasn't the only one who wanted to know if there was anything to those rumors . The way you find out , is to ask. Turns out Ricky doesn't know anything.
 
It was pretty obvious last year in the NW series that Danica was sweet on Ricky. Lots of time and smiles together, along with long hugs.
 
Wow, Bob Pakrass has turned NASCAR reporting into E! TV....or maybe it's TMZ. Such great reporting bob.
 
She's too young to be a cougar isn't she?
 
This combo could promote some serious on-track or even off-track excitement between the duo running for ROY.

2013 Random scanner chatter between the loving couple.

------------------------------------

Daytona 500 - Lap #42

Danica - 'Ricky, did you take out the garbage like I told you to do before we left for Daytona?'

Ricky - 'No. Sorry babe, I forgot'

Result - Waltrip wets his pants calling the big one coming out of turn #2.

------------------------------------

Food City 500 - Bristol - Lap #398-403

Ricky - 'Hey babe. I was thinking that we need to invite all three Sprint Cup girls over for our pool party this week?'

Danica - 'I knew you had you eye on those filthy skank whores! Take this to the damn pool party!'

Result - Ricky, hard into the outside wall collecting points leader Jeff Gordon.

------------------------------------

STP 400 - Kansas - Laps #55-124

Ricky - 'Hey babe.'

Danica - 'Yeah?'

Ricky - 'I didn't realize how hard it is running here.'

Danica - 'Did you say it's hard?'

Result - The next 69 laps spent in the driver's infield motorhome lot putting each of them 69 laps down to the field.

Confirmed

Big news from the social segment of the world of NASCAR: Danica Patrick is dating fellow 2013 rookie of the year candidate Ricky Stenhouse Jr.
Patrick, recently divorced and one of the most famous faces in racing, and Stenhouse, the two-time reigning Nationwide Series champion, are both making their full-time Sprint Cup series debut this season. Patrick races for Stewart-Haas Racing, while Stenhouse runs for Roush-Fenway Racing.
Stenhouse had served as something of a mentor to Patrick during her 2012 season. Speculation had swirled about the couple throughout this past week's NASCAR Media Tour in Charlotte. On Friday, Patrick confirmed to the AP that, indeed, the rumors were true.
''I have a boyfriend, his name is Richard," Patrick said. ''I think I am just finally excited to tell someone about this."
The reason for keeping the story quiet until now, Patrick said, was to keep the focus on racing during the Media Tour. 'We are dating, and I know there's been a bit of a runaround this week at the media days and poor Ricky got grilled (with questions about the rumors),'' Patrick told the AP. ''It was out of respect to NASCAR, to all the manufacturers, the new cars, the teams, the sponsors, just to allow the news of the day to be about racing and not let anything interfere with that. So, it's Friday now, so that's why we waited until the end of the week to be up front about each other."
Stenhouse independently confirmed the relationship to the AP, echoing Patrick's statement that the couple did not wish to distract from the week. Both drivers said that simply getting the news out in public will hopefully cut down on some of the speculation that surrounds every high-profile driver.
Sanctimony about the non-newsworthiness of the Patrick-Stenhouse revelations ran high among some segments of the NASCAR media, fresh off the weeklong, virtually news-free trinkets-and-free-meals "media tour." But the truth is that this is the most newsworthy celebrity-dating news in some time. These two are on-track competitors, which — to our recollection — is the first time that two major on-field competitors in any sport are in a romantic relationship.
Could make for some interesting moments should one of the two happen to wreck the other, yes? Also, bear in mind that drivers can, in many situations, have a significant impact on the outcome of the race to benefit other drivers. Both Patrick and Stenhouse can look forward to an entire year of intense scrutiny, both on and off the track.

Another thing that makes me scratch my head and say "who gives a rats ass?!" But then, I guess someone obviously does, and those same people probably read Us Weekly, People, or whatever other celebrity trash rags are out there.
 
We all saw how friendly Danica and Ricky became last year so none of this is a surprise.

I think it will be cool to watch a race and, based on how they race each other, gauge who won their latest argument. ;)

Damn, if Ricky ever tells her a lie, like the check is in the mail, things could get totally out of control. I need Greg to chime in on this. Greg....
 
So now that it's official the question is: is this good or bad for the sport? Does it matter Will the extra buzz created by the relationship (especially since it's Danica) draw some extra fans to the races this year? Does it create a conflict of interest for the drivers? If someone crashes Danica will Ricky hold a grudge? At the very least I think it'll be a vaguely interesting unrace related NASCAR story for a few weeks...
 
His name is Richard but goes by Ricky. Most guys I've known named Richard go by the nick name Dick. Wonder if she's nicknamed his,,you know. Little Ricky? Or little Dicky? :eek:
