IndyCar racer Danica Patrick is once again to be featured in the eagerly anticipated Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue available to the public today.

For the 2008 issue, Patrick participated in a photo shoot in the sand but a New York studio with a silver Shelby Cobra 427 was the backdrop for this year's issue.

More than 70 million people are expected to pick up the special issue while more than 250 million people are expected to view photo galleries on the magazine's Web site.
