I don't know him at all. Is he in his own little world?

Alexander Rossi on the Harvest GP, Twitter.com, 24th September 2020
I think Danica's pretty aggressive in our cars. I mean, you know especially if you catch her at the right time of the month, she might be trading plenty of paint out there!

Dario Franchitti on winning the 91st Indy 500
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
It looks so easy when you watch it on TV, but it's not.

Helio Castroneves after winning the Indy 500, May 2009

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

Sage Karam on everyone wanting to pick a fight with him, IndyStar.com, August 3rd 2015
She was acting like a spoiled brat. I don't respect that. I tried to step away. She kept grabbing on me like a dog that wanted to bite my ankles.
