(GMM) The only Honda powered vehicle Danica Patrick steered around Indy on Friday was a road car.
And BAR's Nick Fry said there are 'no plans' to try America's top female racer in a F1 cockpit later this summer.
''In the end, (her planned demo run) just proved totally impractical,'' Fry added, explaining that the 23-year-old had a sponsor meeting in Phoenix.
Patrick said in the Paddock: ''I would never say definitely no to F1.''
And, although devoted to the marketing potential of having an American woman on the grid, F1's Bernie Ecclestone will today be hoping the country also has a sense of humour.
He said: ''I've got this wonderful notion of women all dressed in white, like all the other domestic appliances.''
