Danica Patrick Got Her Ears Pierced During Fun 'Girls Night Out'

Danica Patrick enjoyed a girls night out this week.

The 44-year-old former NASCAR and IndyCar driver took to her Instagram Story, to show off photos of her new piercings.

Patrick, who retired from racing in 2018, got some new piercings in her ear. She shared photos of her girls night out on Instagram. Patrick and her friends hit up the piercing shop to get some work done.

Danica Patrick added a series of diamond earrings to her left ear, enjoying some time with friends during a girls night out.

She shared the photos of her jewelry addition to her Instagram Story.

Patrick has been having more free time lately, too. The former NASCAR and IndyCar star will not be part of SkySports' Formula 1 coverage in 2026.

Patrick will still be covering NASCAR and IndyCar for NBC, though she won't be working F1 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!"

This frees up Patrick to spend more time with friends - and, apparently, more time to get her ears pierced.
