• "Many people always ask me why I sign off 'Until we meet again.' Because goodbye is so final. Goodbye, Dan Wheldon."

    Marty Reid, Las Vegas, October 16th 2011

    Alexander Rossi on IndyCar, The Indy Star, September 14th 2018

  • 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.

  • The minute he got in front of me, he slowed down half-a-second a lap because he knows I'm fighting him for the championship and he was out of the race. It's probably the most unsportsmanlike thing I've ever seen on the racetrack, apart from shunting someone into a wall.

    Wade Cunningham on Sebastien Saavedra, Iowa 2009

  • Going into Texas with four wheels on the car is pretty exciting!

    Conor Daly on silly season rumours, Trackside, September 13th 2016
