  • When Will was going off on Versus, I was cracking up. I was like, man, I didn't know you could talk like that! And I never knew you could say 'wanker' on TV, but that's my new word for now on... so I guess something good did come out of Toronto!

    Tony Kanaan on Will Power, Toronto, July 2011

  • My mom hasn't played much of a role in my racing career. In fact, I think she still wants me to join the Coast Guard. But I still love her.

    Will Power on aerokits, Motorsport.com, May 4th 2016

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

  • I think this is something that will really change the complexion of the sport for a long time to come, so this is big

  • It's just great, pure racing.

    Sebastien Bourdais on IndyCar, June 2015

  • Racing IndyCars at Richmond is like flying fighter jets in a gymnasium.

    Eddie Cheever Jr.

  • I kind of have half an idea of what it means to win this race now. I couldn't be happier.
