    Ryan Hunter-Reay to Milka Duno after Watkins Glen qualifying, July 2010

    Will Power on the 2016 season, ESPN.com, September 18th 2016

    Wilbur Shaw

  • I am stupid.

    Zach Veach on Zach Veach after an off track excursion, IMS, July 4th 2020

    Danica Patrick, June 2005

  • It's a new... track... record!

    Tom Carnegie
