Having raced all over the planet, I would say that IndyCar is the toughest beast yet to master for me.
Felix Rosenqvist, Motorsports.com, September 17th 2019

I think the IRL has been poised for a long time to be discovered by a lot of people.

Ed Carpenter to Tony Kanaan on the suggestion that he was over 40, Gateway, August 24th 2019

Sam Hornish Jr, Indy 2006
Since last fall I've been wondering what in the hell it's going to feel like, and now I know.

James Hinchcliffe on an unnamed driver, Long Beach 2014
