Gentlemen, start your engines.

He's grounded.
Bryan Herta to Marco Andretti on Colton Herta knocking Marco out of P1 in final practice, Long Beach, April 14th 2019

I think this is something that will really change the complexion of the sport for a long time to come, so this is big

Some people strap on their helmet and lose their brains.

Brad Pitt got a super license before me. Tough.
