Some people strap on their helmet and lose their brains.
Graham Rahal on the carnage at Toronto, July 2011
There comes a time in a race where money doesn't matter, living doesn't matter. Winning is the only thing that matters, and so when you go into those corners, it's winning that tells all.
Al Unser Jr.
Back then there were 50-75 cars just trying to make the field. And they were the best drivers in the world. I remember thinking; I can’t believe this. I can't believe I got a spot.
A.J. Foyt on qualifying for his first Indianapolis 500 mile race
When you go home and you're slow, there's nothing you can do. But when you go home under these conditions it's kind of tough.

If someone said choose one race to win, just one, and that was the only race you ever got to win, it would be the Indy 500.

Essentially; the same lap time for the top ten!

This is a great decision by IndyCar. Plus it gives me another month to get ready.

The race that made the IRL famous!

Some of the drivers roll out this 'safety' word, and suddenly it ties everybody's hands. But those arguments make no sense anyway. Remove downforce and you actually improve safety
Rick Mears on downforce, Motorsport.com, October 28th 2015
Whoever has got the big balls is going to go fast!

It's a living, breathing, organism.

Everyone wants to pick a fight with me. Whatever.

The toughest people out there passing me are my teammates, and I don't get that. I think three of the four of us get what the camaraderie of Andretti Green Racing is.
Marco Andretti on an unidentified teammate after Milwaukee 2009
Good news is we've won every race we've finished!

Robbie Buhl, after winning at WDW in 2000
I'm just so f***ing disappointed!
Kosuke Matsuura, St Pete's 2007
I don't want to take a defeatist attitude here but it's going to be ugly. If IndyCar goes the domed skid route, we're going to be taking a knife to a gunfight.
Sam Schmidt on Chevy's advantage with domed skids, Racer.com, April 7th 2016
As a past driver, I'd answer the phone if Roger or Chip called...
Sarah Fisher on keeping Josef Newgarden in her team, Racer.com, August 3rd 2015

Tony Kanaan on Dan and Danica, Milwaukee 2007
I just kept focused, focused, focused, all day long, getting every corner perfect.
Helio Castroneves, St Pete's 2007

Do you still remember how to celebrate these things?!

It's great that it's one minute after six!
Marty Roth, Indy Bump Day 2007
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.
Mikhail Aleshin on drivers who are too scared to run the Indy 500, May 16th 2017
