    Helio Castroneves on the return to road courses

  • It takes a lot of guts to expose yourself in front of millions of people, in front of all the media, in front of all your peers.

    Dan Wheldon

  • James Hinchcliffe on bumping at Indy, May 19th 2018

  • At 220mph friendship, risk and victory become extremely volatile.

    Dan Wheldon

  • 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?

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

    Paul Diatlovitch, Indy Bump Day 2007

  • The worst thing about crashing A.J.'s car twice in two days is you still have to go to dinner with him. And he makes you buy, and then he eats your bowl of ice cream, too.

    Billy Boat

    Buddy Lazier on the Indy 500

  • 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
