James Hinchcliffe via Twitter, December 17th 2015
We'd love to see Buddy Rice in a car and in the Indy 500, but as best we can tell, no driver has ever qualified for the Indy 500 from their couch.

Cheever had a problem with my dad, he had a problem with me, and now he's taking it out on Marco.
Michael Andretti, Watkins Glen 2006

Alexander Rossi on IndyCar, The Indy Star, September 14th 2018
Some of the drivers who don't want to do the Indy 500, they just have small balls. I think that's the only explanation.

Gentlemen, start your engines.
Wilbur Shaw
Finishing in the Top-10 here was because of nutrition.

I was frustrated since Motegi and wanted to prove a point. When you're in a competitive package, you can't let points slip. I can eat breakfast tomorrow morning now instead of stabbing my fork into the table.
Dan Wheldon, Kansas 2007
It's great that it's one minute after six!
Marty Roth, Indy Bump Day 2007

Do you think I give a flying f*** what Buddy Rice thinks?

The Indy 500 is the biggest race in the world. I don't think it's even debatable. It is.
Dan Wheldon
I didn't leave. I was terminated.

I've seen this place be absolutely great to me, and I've seen it wrench my heart from my body.

He said its the best team out there. If its the best team, he shouldn't have a problem.

Paul Tracy on AJ Foyt, May 2009
I know a lot of people say that Iowa is in the middle of nowhere, but you know what, we get such a great crowd and they're so enthusiastic. As a driver you could put me in paradise, but if there's nobody in the grandstands then it's not good racing.
Dan Wheldon on Iowa Speedway, June 2009
My Father said if you are going to win one race, make sure it is the Indianapolis 500

If he wins this race with what he has to work with, they ought to name this place after him.
