While the carousel of Instagram photos consisted of family photos in a swimming pool and on a golf course, there were two that stood out — one of Patrick sitting poolside on a towel as she dried off.
The other is the back of the former racer with her hands on her head as the camera focuses on the American flag tattoo above her pert derriere.
“I got that American U.S./checkered flag tattoo when I came back from living in the U.K. for 3 years from 16-19. Because I was proud and grateful to be home,” she captioned the Instagram post, joking that the body art was “no Picasso.”
Patrick added: “Thank you to those who make safe and free.”
Patrick moved to England as a teen as she pursued a racing career driving for Formula Vauxhall and Formula Ford, according to ESPN.
It was “rough” across the pond, but perhaps the experience she needed to be the driver she eventually became.

“Forever, when I lived in England, I thought I was maybe too scared. I thought that because the fast corners were something I just didn’t do well at. I thought maybe I am just not cut out for this,” she said in the profile.
That was until she returned to the U.S. and worked for Champ Car owner Bobby Rahal, a former Indianapolis 500 winner who she credits as teaching her about cars and how to drive and eventually provided the break that led to her entry into the IndyCar Series in 2005.
Leading up to the holiday, Patrick expressed her gratitude for those who “keep America safe and strong” in a June 22 video on X, exclaiming she’s a “damn proud American.”
The weekend before that, Patrick was in Montreal covering the 2025 Canadian Grand Prix for Sky Sports F1.
Patrick, who also enjoyed a round of golf with her younger sister Brooke, her husband Chase and their father over the holiday weekend, has been a vocal supporter of Donald Trump and the Republican Party over the past couple of years.
In the days following the Canadian Grand Prix, Patrick took a “whirlwind trip to D.C. for meetings,” she shared on Instagram along with photos with U.S. senators and Secretary of Health Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
The athlete clarified that she is “not running for office but working on some fun projects that will benefit Americans.”
