I bet you'd love to drive one, you just wouldn't want to crash one!

Charlie Kimball to Dale Jr. via Twitter, Pocono, August 23rd 2015

Finishing in the Top-10 here was because of nutrition.

A Sarah Fisher malapropism, Texas 2007

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

Roger Yasukawa, Indy 2007

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

You're not going to out-Dixon Dixon!

James Hinchcliffe on trying to beat Scott Dixon on fuel mileage, during the Bommarito Automative 500, August 27th 2023

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

John Barnes on Sam Hornish Jr, indy 2003

That's a good way to lose a championship.

Tony Kanaan, Kansas 2007

It's like a reunion to come back here every May. I've never retired. I always say, "I'm not done yet."

Parnelli Jones, Indy 2007

It was talent and skill, that's how I did it. A masterful display of driving ability!

James Hinchcliffe on getting through the gap that took him from 17th to 6th at Mid Ohio, August 2014

I can't believe it. I cannot believe it. What a year for this Target team. It was so much fun to be a part of.

Dario Franchitti, Homestead 2009

I came in not knowing what to expect. I basically fell in love with IndyCar.

Romain Grosjean on his rookie season, Laguna Seca, September 19th 2021

It was a tough day – really disappointing... I guess it was a good day in reality.

Josef Newgarden on finishing 7th at the IMS Road Course, July 4th 2020

Hope you're all snug in your beds, while Indycars dance in your head...

Simon Pagenaud on insomnia, Twitter, 4:31 AM, July 23rd 2019

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

I didn't leave. I was terminated.

Sebastien Bourdais on the flip side of the Coyne, NBCSports.com, November 22nd 2019

Antony! Yer losin' 3 seconds a lap! Now get yer foot into it, I'm not gonna tell ya again!!

AJ Foyt, Chicagoland 2004

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

Jay Frye on the Aeroscreen, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, October 2nd 2019

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

The walls are white, the track is grey, the grass is green, and the sky is blue... your job is to keep them all where they belong.

Johnny Rutherford's advice to Indy 500 rookies

I am stupid.

Zach Veach on Zach Veach after an off track excursion, IMS, July 4th 2020

This is a huge day for the IndyCar Series and for our sport as a whole, for sure.

Michael Andretti, February 22nd 2008

It was so scary for me. I don't know what else to say. I don't know what happened but it felt like my front and rear wings were upside down.

Marco Andretti, Kansas 2007

It's just crazy. If I never won another pole, I wouldn't care. Almost.

James Hinchcliffe on winning the pole for the 100th Indy 500, May 22nd 2016

I'm throwing this one out to Dan. This is his hometown, this is his car.

James Hinchcliffe after his first career victory, St. Petersburg, March 24th 2013

The day started when I walked into Gasoline Alley and saw the grandstands. It was my first time here on race day and it was quite unbelievable.

Alex Tagliani on the 2009 Indianapolis 500

When I saw he was slowing down, I have to say it was a relief. I thought, 'Now we can finally unleash the beast inside and go for the win.'

Simon Pagenaud on Will Power's misfortune at Sonoma, ESPN.com, September 18th 2016

The last I looked, I earned the label of Indy 500 champion; those lobbing unfounded accusations at me have not.

Eddie Cheever Jr. after Watkins Glen 06

I'd have finished my career very disappointed had I not won the Indy 500. It's an amazing feeling and an amazing event.

Will Power on winning the 102nd Indy 500, racer.com, August 7th 2018

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

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

Jimmie Johnson on the 2021 season opener being delayed, via Twitter, January 6th 2021

I really wish I'd gone to college and got a proper job!

Katherine Legge on the stress of last chance qualifying, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 19th 2024

Rick Mears is a great race car driver. Hopefully I have plenty of years to try to earn his respect again.

Tony Kanaan, Detroit 2007

It felt way better than I ever thought it was going to feel!

Ed Carpenter on finally winning his first race, Kansas, October 2011

That's the kind of incident that leaves skidmarks *inside* the cockpit!

Tom Sneva

We'll be fine. I'll take them to Six Flags tomorrow and we'll all be fine.

Tony Kanaan on Marco & Danica, June 2009 at Texas Motor Speedway

It's a living, breathing, organism.

Eddie Cheever on Indianapolis Motor Speedway

I was just hanging back there waiting for someone to make a mistake and it turned out to be me!

Colton Herta on the final restart, Road America, June 12th 2022

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

Dan Wheldon

Maybe he should start thinking about driving and stop thinking about dancing because that was a stupid move.

Tomas Scheckter on Helio Castroneves, Detroit 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

Last season, we lost the championship in the last corner of the last lap of the last race to some other guy.

Chip Ganassi, Daytona 2008

It's great that it's one minute after six!

Marty Roth, Indy Bump Day 2007

Now they've got competition and they are not talking about winning. I feel like they want to sit around and hold hands and sing. I want to win.

Chip Ganassi on Honda, St Petersberg, March 23rd 2013

I drove it like I stole it!

Helio Castroneves, St Pete's 2006

It's a new... track... record!

Tom Carnegie

The minute he got in front of me, he slowed down half-a-second a lap because he knows I'm fighting him for the championship and he was out of the race. It's probably the most unsportsmanlike thing I've ever seen on the racetrack, apart from shunting someone into a wall.

Wade Cunningham on Sebastien Saavedra, Iowa 2009

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

Chip Ganassi

Some people strap on their helmet and lose their brains.

Graham Rahal on the carnage at Toronto, July 2011

Without the IRL, a lot of guys would never have been able to show what they can do.

Tony Stewart, May 2007
