Danica Patrick Sounds Off On Unfortunate Arizona House Problems

Danica Patrick is having some unfortunate house problems.

The 44-year-old former NASCAR and IndyCar driver spends most of her time in Arizona. While the West Coast state is beautiful most of the year, it can also present some issues. Specifically, in the wildlife department.

Patrick, who has an impressive net worth, took to her Instagram Story on Wednesday night. She revealed that she spotted a big snake in her kitchen. She also had some issues with javelina in her driveway.

Danica Patrick has multiple dogs, which is not an ideal environment for a snake, obviously. While the snake was harmless, that had to be a pretty frightening sight, at least at first.

Patrick added that there's been some issues with her driveway, as well.

Patrick at least has more time on her hands these days.

The former NASCAR star is no longer a part of Sky Sports' Formula 1 coverage. She opened up about what happened.

Patrick opens up about more free time

Patrick will still broadcast events for NASCAR and IndyCar, though she's no longer calling Formula 1 races.

"From my first Sky Sports F1 race in Austin to my last 5 years later… I had such a blast! The Sky team was so much fun (thank you all), I saw so many amazing new race tracks and cities, and got to be part of a huge boom in F1!

"I called after the last race in 2025 and said it was time for me to move on and I was so grateful for the opportunity and experience I was given!

"….and now due to my deep exposure to F1, I will be glued to my TV for the season starting this weekend, like every other fan!"
