    Danica Patrick, Dale Earnhardt and Jay-Z

    IndyCar Series driver Danica Patrick is contemplating the jump to NASCAR, and she also wants to teach Beyonce how to drive a race car.
    But Patrick, the first woman to win an Indy car race, has a better shot at driving in NASCAR’s Daytona 500 than driving around Beyonce, a seven-time Grammy Award winning singer and Oscar-nominated actress.
    Lewis Hamilton, boyfriend of Pussycat Doll frontwoman Nicole Scherzinger, gave private driving lessons to the Obsessed movie star and her husband, rapper Jay-Z, a few days before competing in Formula One’s Monaco Grand Prix this weekend.
    Patrick thinks she should have been the one teaching Beyonce how to drive a race car after she raced a Pagani Zonda roadster against Dale Earnhardt Jr.’s Ferrari F430 Spider with Jay-Z in the passenger seat in Monaco for the rapper’s 2006 Show Me What You Got music video. The video used some of the same turns for the Monaco Grand Prix.
    Choosing Hamilton’s instruction was a matter of convenience because Beyonce and Jay-Z left the Cannes Film Festival in France to attend the nearby Monaco Grand Prix on Monte Carlo.
    Danica will get her chance behind the wheel with Beyonce. For now, she needs to decide her next career move. Her contract with Andretti Green Racing expires at the end of the IndyCar season, and she said she will listen to offers from NASCAR teams.
