I just kept focused, focused, focused, all day long, getting every corner perfect.

Howard and me set the first and third fastest times of the day, and we both got beaten to grid slot 33 by a kid in Methodist Hospital with a smoking wreck of a car. The magic of Indy, huh?

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

I have learned more in one week here than I did in my entire Formula One career.

Gentlemen, start your engines.

The Indy 500 is the biggest race in the world. I don't think it's even debatable. It is.

For a moment, all is right with the world - Danica Patrick is leading the Indianapolis 500.

I don't know him at all. Is he in his own little world?

I think Danica's pretty aggressive in our cars. I mean, you know especially if you catch her at the right time of the month, she might be trading plenty of paint out there!
Ed Carpenter, July 2006
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
If he wins this race with what he has to work with, they ought to name this place after him.

I arrived in Turn 1 and I was convinced that I was doing flat out, but the foot was not flat - it had its own life, it was not connected to my brain at that moment.
Fernando Alonso on Turn 1 commitment at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 3rd 2017
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.

If you run around in the back with the squirrels, you're bound to get your nuts cracked.

Eyes on the starter...
