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.

I'm 19 years old, I drive Indy cars... I'm happy.

It's a Top-10 but after finishing here fifth last year nothing less than that would really be satisfying because you always want more.

Katherine Legge on the stress of last chance qualifying, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 19th 2024
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.
Dan Wheldon on Iowa Speedway, June 2009
As a past driver, I'd answer the phone if Roger or Chip called...

Patience is a virtue... and someone wasn't very virtuous today.

I'm tired of being nice about it. The fact is, grip created by aerodynamic downforce is our enemy... At the moment, the downforce is so great that it masks the handling and hurts the racing
Rick Mears on what's wrong with IndyCar, Motorsport.com, October 28th 2015
Everyone wants to pick a fight with me. Whatever.
Sage Karam on everyone wanting to pick a fight with him, IndyStar.com, August 3rd 2015
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

Michael Andretti, February 22nd 2008
What makes IndyCar racing so good is there's not much you can do on your car to differentiate it from the others. It's only dampers, third springs. There's the aero with the aero kits – and hopefully those are going away.

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
Then again my favorite films of all time are Fast and the Furious 1 through 8 or however many of them there are.
Conor Daly on underglow. Via Twitter, July 16th 2020
We'd love to see Buddy Rice in a car and in the Indy 500, but as best we can tell, no driver has ever qualified for the Indy 500 from their couch.
TrackSideOnline, May 2009
I think the IRL has been poised for a long time to be discovered by a lot of people.
Chip Ganassi
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.
Someone asked me if I win the Indy 500 if I'd still retire? I'd still retire. What better way to go out?

I was going through there as hard as I could. It was for everything. It was for all the marbles.
