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.

NASCAR has nothing on us. Look at the crowd at Indy – that's three Daytona 500s all in one place.

Will Power on aerokits, motorsport.com, May 4th 2016
This is a great decision by IndyCar. Plus it gives me another month to get ready.

Tom Carnegie
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.

Gentlemen... restart your engines!

Having raced all over the planet, I would say that IndyCar is the toughest beast yet to master for me.
