I was going good but then I slipped in my own drool.

This has been the best season of my career in motorsport and I've learned so much. We'll be coming back to win this thing next year.

We'll be fine. I'll take them to Six Flags tomorrow and we'll all be fine.

I can't believe it. I cannot believe it. What a year for this Target team. It was so much fun to be a part of.

Whoever has got the big balls is going to go fast!

It's always sad to be out of a race but I'm happy that I walked away; it was a nasty, nasty crash.

Tony Kanaan at the 2009 Indianapolis 500

The track is narrower than I thought! You watch the television and you see three cars alongside on the main straight - now I am in the car on the main straight and it's hard to imagine how you can fit three cars there at speed.

Fernando Alonso after his first test at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 3rd 2017

The Indy 500 is the biggest race in the world. I don't think it's even debatable. It is.

It felt way better than I ever thought it was going to feel!

Who is the buff guy in blue with the big #Schnozolla?

Chip Ganassi on Tony Kanaan's Family Feud appearance, via Twitter, July 26th 2016

The last I looked, I earned the label of Indy 500 champion; those lobbing unfounded accusations at me have not.

When Will was going off on Versus, I was cracking up. I was like, man, I didn't know you could talk like that! And I never knew you could say 'wanker' on TV, but that's my new word for now on... so I guess something good did come out of Toronto!

My picture isn't everywhere, but people recognize me. I'm telling you, it's the nose.

Tony Kanaan, May 2007

It's like a reunion to come back here every May. I've never retired. I always say, "I'm not done yet."

Antony! Yer losin' 3 seconds a lap! Now get yer foot into it, I'm not gonna tell ya again!!
