    Jean Alesi, Bump Day, Indy 2012

    Paul Tracy on AJ Foyt, May 2009

    A Sarah Fisher malapropism, Texas 2007

    Buddy Lazier on the Indy 500

  • 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.

    Eddie Cheever Jr.

  • I know a lot of people say that Iowa is in the middle of nowhere, but you know what, we get such a great crowd and they're so enthusiastic. As a driver you could put me in paradise, but if there's nobody in the grandstands then it's not good racing.

    Dan Wheldon on Iowa Speedway, June 2009

  • So it was a bad result but good day. Led laps, good restarts, passed people, worked with the car, but finished crap! movin on!!

    Danica Patrick after Iowa 2009, via Twitter

  • I think Briscoe and I had a pretty good race going on, but we got what we got.
