IndyCar Busts: Milka Duno 

Christ, we may not have given Danica a lot of credit, but at least she was able to drive competently in IndyCar.

You forgot to mention that Indycar halfway through the season literally put Duno on probation in 2010 for failing to meet minimum speed in all her races😭

I'm Venezuelan and I've forgotten about her. A blast from the past.

The Milka and Danica shouting match is hilarious 😂

Speaking of Venezuelan funded by government, on the other side of Atlantic there's Pastor Maldonado. Fast albeit crash-prone, he did win an F1 race on pure merit.

Rest in peace, Robin Miller. You were TV gold!

At least Danica could keep up and even compete with the Indycar Field, how bad must you be to make her look like a worldbeater? If only she had stayed in Endurance racing we'd look very differently upon her (except the funding business of course). Nice job as always Darian

Robin Miller coining her Milk 'n' Donuts will never be unfunny.

I was surprised that Danica kept her cool and didn't went to a full brawl on Duno

Milka making Danica look like AJ Foyt is a *disastrous* feat to have as a driver

I'm sure Milka Duno anything about how to race properly in Indycar

I had a feeling that this one was coming, good video as always, Darian

I remember at Iowa in 2008 she was lapped twice by the entire field TWICE in the first 25 laps.

I’ve never heard someone pronounce Venezuela “Venezulia”

RIP Robin Miller.

Attended an Indy race at Sonoma it was like Duno was was towing a piano she was soo far behind

HAPPY EASTER SUNDAY

Love how the pit guy revs up the air gun when Danicant was running her trap.

Milk N Donuts as the late Robin Miller refer

HA !!! Most people forgot about most of this. Thanks for the refresher course

Man, i remember discovery shilling her A LOT in the mid to late 2000's

Thanks for this video that came in a nice timing for me as I just finished to watch the 2008 season during the last few weeks.

I remember Milka very well...... did you know that she actually wrote a childrens book? Stats aside, if you really think about it, Milka's story is proof that it is never too late to accomplish your dreams. Oh, and who could ever forget the epic Milka vs Danica shouting match.......

Ladies and gentlemen we're found the Holy Grail of Indy busts

"Unlike the other 'busts' we cover in this series, no other 'busts' quite have the 'busts' that Milka Duno has" 😂😂😂

The famous Milk & Donuts 🥛🍩🍩

Robin Miller. The Sage of wisdom as always.

We need a NASCAR bust video for Kevin LePage

Milka Duno is my go-to example to explain the concept of talent ceilings to people who think everyone who fails in some top-tier motorsport is a hopeless piece of garbage that can't do anything. You would think it would be better to use winners of ladder championships, but that's actually not the case because ladder championships are filled with ACTUAL no-hopers in addition to the talented ones who have a hope of making it big, and everyone knows that. She did just good enough on performance tiers below IndyCar to show she had a modicum of talent - enough to make you wonder what she might have done if she'd started racing earlier in life. IndyCar is clearly beyond her, but if the talent she does have had been fostered early MAYBE she could have done something of note in NASCAR.

You know you’re so bad when Danica is calling you out on your driving

NEW BUSTS VIDEO

I got to go to the 2008 Kentucky race and she wound up wrecking her car near the first third of the race.

Milka had the milkers though 😂😂😂😂

If ever there was a candidate for "Random F1 drivers," I would include 2 options, one more hilarious than the other. The first is Giovani Lavagi. One of several drivers in F1, particularly in the mid-90s, who was racing because of the size of their wallet, he drove a handful of races in 1995 and 1996 for the Pacific and Minardi teams. His most famous moment was in Hockenheim, Germany, before the 1996 German Grand Prix, when after pulling off the track with an engine failure, he was too busy trying to put his steering wheel back in place to notice a naked flame licking from the engine air intake behind him, before a squirt of fire extinguisher fluid brought it to his attention. The second is German driver, Hans Heyer. Making a one off appearance for Penske (yes, Roger Penske did have an F1 team back in the day) at the 1977 German Grand Prix, also at Hockenheim, at first things didn't look promising as he failed to qualify for the race. However, partly due to him knowing the circuit organisers, he snuck on to the grid and started the race. With the officials blissfully unaware, he circulated the track for 9 laps before retring from the race with a gear linkage failure. Only then did the officials notice he'd been racing when he shouldn't have been and (belatedly) disqualified him. This meant that he's the only driver to not finish a race he was disqualified from that officially he didn't qualify for (basically, in one start he had a DNQ, DNF and DSQ). Madness!

Danica telling somebody else they are slow and giving others a "hard time." Irony at its' finest.

I miss Robin Miller

Who the heck is Milka Duno?

I am glad there are no Citgo's close to me in my neighborhood of Kingwood, Texas anymore they left for good a few years ago.

This was a video I did want you to make. She was rolling chicane almost every race, and was a total bust.

Couldn't imagine Robin's comments being said in today's world so many people would lite on fire over it😂 RIP Robin🙏

0:15 POV: avarage girl fight

Oh Milk & Donuts!

What about Hiro Matsushita with huge Panasonic money and literally ZERO results?

0:04 knowing how much of a horrible person Danica is, that was satisfying to watch lol

She apparently had a extremely minor appearance in the Speed Racer (2008) film. Speed punted her into a big screen in the the final race. SR 2008 is a fun but insane movie 😂.

I have a memory of her crashing in front of me and my parents in São Paulo qualify. In the same race every time she crossed the stands in her usual last place, the crowd ironically applauded her.

The biggest bust 🤩

F1 Bad Season 2022: Daniel Ricciardo F1 Championship Hangover: 2010 Jenson Button

Sort of like when Colin Braun went from sports cars to NASCAR. He won a race in Trucks, but flamed out in what’s now Xfinity. He’s now a sports car legend.

There was a popular hashtag #ParkMilka throughout all of 2010 because of how much worse she got that season

Long story short, Milka deserved her chance to race Indycar, but she shouldn’t have been racing Indycar as long as she did

I didn't even know Milka Duno raced in the indycar series or finished 2nd in the Rolex 24 until today. I started following auto racing in 2011 so I only knew Milka as an average ARCA racer.

She's a wonderful person, I've met her a few times at Petit Le Mans. I may have jokingly accused her of stalking me the first time, because I would find a nice place to take pictures or sit down for lunch, and she ran up to talk to someone near me. It went on all 4 days I was there. Lol. She was good in sports cars. And, very pretty.

Hindsight is always 20/20 but man had she stayed in sports cars she might be considered one of the greatest female race car drivers of all time

Her IndyCar Performance is equivalent to Danica's NASCAR Performance.

More indy contant please, great work buddy

Also she did some NASCAR as well. 😊

Robin Miller said it best.

To be fair, calling Milka Duno is a bust is unfair. No one had high expectations for her.

To be fair, Milka did have full body car experience with 24 Hour races and all that unlike Danica who never had that experience. Milka was up in the lead pack with 16 laps to go when idiots in front of her near the front started a 14 car big one. To be fair, female drivers in ARCA was never kind to them as young kids with no experience spins them out at Daytona or Talladega.

_"Milka Duno. The only driver to make Danica Patrick look like AJ Foyt."_ Bruh...

as a venezuelan it makes my mad that my tax money went to suport her efforts to crash a car every weekend instead of building hospitals or something

Citgo Sponsor NASCAR Winston Cup Series From The 80s And Early 90s Thanks For Uploading

Milka duno is the indy cars version of cody ware

I don't want anyone trashing Danica Patrick ever again. Next time someone tries to say anything about Danica, just reply with 2 words: Milka Duno!

She has to be one of the biggest busts I've ever seen when it comes to IndyCar, I am glad Citgo is basically not in Motorsports anymore my Dad hated Citgo and we know why see the end of the video especially at 10:13 and see why I said that.

Next we need NASCAR “Wonderful People” Rick Crawford

Like a lot of sports, sometimes the next level doesn't work out. Tasty vanilla comment.

Veneswailia

She has a different kind of busts going on too 😂

Her best performance was in Speed Racer 2008

Hear me out on this one... NASCAR Busts: Dario Franchitti

The biggest backmarker in IndyCar history.

Surprisingly she didn't kill herself or others in the open wheel series. Sounds like she did ok in sports car series.

I don't know, but I feel bad for her, she maintained her smile throughout all her races, but I believe she was doing the best she could, yet she simply couldn't perform well. Milka wasn't a bad driver; she just didn't understand the “technique” of driving an Indycar. I don't think everything she must have heard about herself was very pleasant. :(

I just loved that she wasn't going to let Danica get the last word. Lord knows she did that enough in NASCAR because someone couldn't slap some sense into her.

And this is why I do not like the Venezulean government things like this. Follow this video and you will see why.

Ryan going and talk to her was pure gold

The only reason I know who Milka Duno is at all is because of her races in ARCA back in the early 2010s

If Milka Duno went to ARCA during the late-2000s or the early-2010s instead of the Indycar Series, she would've probably been with a decent ARCA team and eventually a mid-pack Truck team for a couple years. *All my own opinion*

Her vs danica was enough said

Ah yes. The beautiful country of Venezwelia!

Venezulans are so beautiful

10:22 EJ Viso was also caught in this and disappeared since..

I'm a little surprised it took you this long to get to Milka Duno! Whatever else she might have had going for her, she had no business piloting an Indy car.

Indycar busts Ed jones George Mack Hiro matsushita Marty Roth Jay Howard

I’d never thought I’d see two women beef in Motorsports 😭

She had nice tatas anyway.

She’s now selling real estate in Miami

Milka Duno more like Milka I Don't Know What The Heck I'm Doing

Milka ‘Dono’ how to drive, but she Duno how to crash.

would not call Milka Duno an IndyCar bust... Bust means that you would have to actually be something in the first place.

I remember the one men's room at IMS had the phrase "Milka my Duno" written in sharpie above the trough. It was like a scavenger hunt every May trying to see if it was still there.

Finally, the moment we’ve been waiting for! (Also please go back to the old thumbnail work you used to do, the current ones are ugly lookin’)

Milka es un chocolate, aguante Danica!

She was the Danica Patrick of IndyCar. She was to IndyCar what Danica was to NASCAR, just terrible.

Not mentioning her deal to race for Newman/Haas in 2009 and getting the deal cancelled after she was so terrible in testing makes this video a big bust.
