No doubt that one of the hottest NASCAR couples on the track is Danica Patrick and Ricky Stenhouse Jr.

It was just two months ago when E! News caught up with the two at the Auto Club Speedway in Fontana, Calif., to talk about life outside their cars. Despite that little crash this weekend, we're sure their relationship is in perfect condition.

"I'll say, 'Babe, am I less hot when I'm not on good on the track? Does that make me less attractive?'" Patrick said. "And he's like, 'I'm not with you because you're a race car driver.'"

Maybe it's because of Patrick's way around a kitchen.

"I don't stick to a diet [but] she wishes I would," Stenhouse said. "She eats really really good stuff and is a great cook…I eat healthy when she cooks."

Sweet!
