Danica Patrick crashes after contact from Kasey Kahne at Fontana

Danica Patrick's run at Auto Club Speedway ended early on Sunday after she and Kasey Kahne crashed on Lap 121.

Patrick passed Kahne's car, but then he made contact with her car between Turns 1 and 2, sending Patrick crashing hard into the wall in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Auto Club 400. With smoke in her cockpit, she climbed from her car when it came to a stop in the infield.

Patrick then walked up to the track, waiting for Kahne to pass again before raising her arms to gesture toward his car.
