Whether you're a fan in turn 1 or turn 4, it doesn't matter what position you have. We all make the Indianapolis 500 what it is.

You've only seen me smile here.

I just kept focused, focused, focused, all day long, getting every corner perfect.
Helio Castroneves, St Pete's 2007
Some of the drivers who don't want to do the Indy 500, they just have small balls. I think that's the only explanation.

Eddie Cheever
I can hardly believe it. Who would have thought it?!

When you go home and you're slow, there's nothing you can do. But when you go home under these conditions it's kind of tough.

Marco Andretti, Kansas 2007
That was the hairiest day I've ever had.

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

To finish first you must first finish.

Curt Cavin on Graham Rahal speaking his mind, Traxkaide, May 23rd 2023
I'd have finished my career very disappointed had I not won the Indy 500. It's an amazing feeling and an amazing event.

My picture isn't everywhere, but people recognize me. I'm telling you, it's the nose.

It's always sad to be out of a race but I'm happy that I walked away; it was a nasty, nasty crash.

It's a living, breathing, organism.

This is just an excellent race and to be a part of the history, I'm really grateful for that.

Having a pulse should make you want to attend the 500.
James Hinchcliffe on what should make you want to attend the 500, via Twitter, April 2012
We'd love to see Buddy Rice in a car and in the Indy 500, but as best we can tell, no driver has ever qualified for the Indy 500 from their couch.

It's amazing how different an Indycar is from anything else on a racetrack.
