The sports star truly embraced her Sin City surroundings with her playful outfit, strutting her stuff with vigour as she took to the stage in her Vegas costume.
And as well as showing off her fabulous figure, the professional motorist demonstrated her sense of humour as she poked fun at herself ahead of her live routine.
She said: 'The good thing about me is that there's no chance of a wardrobe malfunction because there's not much to malfunction! I hope that little bit didn't fall flat.'
Is that you? Danica's sexy outfit was worlds away from her usual sporting attire as a racing driver

The driver later underwent two more costume changes, showing off her incredible figure in a form-fitting cobalt number and a dramatic black and gold sequin midi-dress.
Blake Shelton scooped three of the top gongs at the ceremony, but the artist wasn’t there to pick them up and was busy at the semi-finals of The Voice, which saw his contestant Cole Vosbury get knocked out just shy of next week’s finals.
But no doubt even though he couldn’t be at the event, Blake would have been delighted to win Best Single By A Male Artist, Best Music Video By A Male Artist and Album Of The Year.

His wife Miranda Lambert, who won Best Female Artist Of The Year, and Carrie Underwood, who scooped the prize for Best Music Video By A Female Artist, also snubbed the event.
Fortunately, Florida Georgia Line, who were the biggest winners of the night, did make an appearance.
The band, consisting of Brian Kelley and Tyler Hubbard, won a whopping six awards during the evening, with four wins for their single Cruise.
