I need a nap now.
Colton Herta on winning his first IndyCar race, COTA, 24th March 2019
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.

When you've driven it for a day, you're going to feel naked without it.

Time to go to the back row party!

She was acting like a spoiled brat. I don't respect that. I tried to step away. She kept grabbing on me like a dog that wanted to bite my ankles.

It looks so easy when you watch it on TV, but it's not.

Marco Andretti, Kansas 2007
The race that made the IRL famous!

This is just an excellent race and to be a part of the history, I'm really grateful for that.

We are trying to fix them but when you start behind the eight ball like last year you are playing catch-up and you will continue to play catch-up until we get rid of these stupid kits!

I mean this guy can't even keep his lies straight. He's told so many in the last week, he's not sure what the truth is.

Paul Tracy, Indy Bump Day 2010
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
