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

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

Rick Mears on downforce, Motorsport.com, October 28th 2015

Less than a mile an hour and I'm on pole. It's tough. It's IndyCar. It's why we love it.

Curt Cavin on Graham Rahal speaking his mind, Traxkaide, May 23rd 2023

Andy Granatelli for as much as he put into the sport, especially at Indianapolis. I had to deal with that big kiss. I can still smell the garlic.

Marty Roth, Indy Bump Day 2007

Not bad for a part timer ;o)

Graham Rahal on finishing 5th at Toronto, via Twitter, July 2010

Wild thought. This 18th Indy 500 means I've been in IndyCar for exactly half of my life. 👀😅

Marco Andretti on getting older, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 18th 2023, via Twitter

Everyone thinks that running in dirty air causes the front end to wash out, but actually it affects the whole car and you just can't follow someone close in fast or medium-speed corners since the aerokits came in.

Gentlemen... restart your engines!

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