NASCAR Driver Natalie Decker Sizzles In Red Swimsuit

NASCAR driver Natalie Decker doesn't need to be on the track to grab everyone's attention.

Decker, 28, currently competes part-time in the NASCAR O'Reilly Auto Parts Series. She drives the No. 35 Chevrolet Camaro SS for Joey Gase Motorsports. As of this moment, the Wisconsin native is still searching for her first top-10 result at this level.

Unfortunately for Decker's fans, she hasn't competed since February's season opener in Daytona. The good news, however, is that she's set to compete at Talladega this Saturday.

"Everyone's been telling me 'I belong in the kitchen,' so I am headed to Talladega to shake n' bake," she wrote on Instagram earlier this week.

Decker is no stranger to turning heads with her social media content. Earlier this month, she posted a swimsuit selfie that left some of her followers speechless.

"You look incredibly beautiful," one fan said.

"I didn't even see a dog," a second fan wrote.

"NASCAR's hottest driver," an Instagram user commented.

Decker isn't afraid to fire back at her critics.

After Decker had an underwhelming performance at Daytona, she let her doubters know that she'll continue to scratch and claw for better results on the track.

"I want to say to the people… that are hating on me for my ability to drive a car, like of course I'm still learning," Decker said, via Sportskeeda. "I'm racing against guys that have more laps at one track than I do in my whole entire career. And the only way I can get better is keep finding sponsorship, keep hustling, and getting to the racetrack. So, I'm not going anywhere."

NASCAR's Ag-Pro 300 will take place this Saturday at 4 p.m. ET. Maybe, just maybe, Decker will silence her critics once and for all.
