    Rick Mears on what's wrong with IndyCar, Motorsport.com, October 28th 2015

    James Hinchcliffe via Twitter, December 17th 2015

    Charlie Kimball to Dale Jr. via Twitter, Pocono, August 23rd 2015

    Al Unser Jr.

  • Second place is nothing.

    Marco Andretti, Indy 2006

  • 3-horse chase. Power, Dixie and GR

    Curt Cavin with a new twist on an old saying, GP of Baltimore 2013

  • I keep getting asked by Europeans, drivers also, if racing around IMS was boring an' easy. I just want to shake my head and walk away.
