I miss my fans so much, you have no idea. I think I appreciate them more then I ever did.

Will Power on aerokits, motorsport.com, May 4th 2016
The things that play on your mind the most are the ones that just got away.

Do you think I give a flying f*** what Buddy Rice thinks?
Dan Wheldon
What makes IndyCar racing so good is there's not much you can do on your car to differentiate it from the others. It's only dampers, third springs. There's the aero with the aero kits – and hopefully those are going away.
Bobby Rahal on the benefits of a spec series, Racer.com, May 18th 2016

Now it's obvious we were too conservative, we should have just gone for it

Marty Reid, Las Vegas, October 16th 2011
The Indianapolis 500 is about the fastest 33 Indy car drivers going for one prize. If they happen to come from America, that's great.
Tony Stewart, May 2007
Whatever you heard, somebody made it up. For the first two days, he talked nonsense because he had a concussion. It doesn't matter what he was saying. He doesn't even remember it.

Tony Kanaan on Dan and Danica, Milwaukee 2007

Beautiful chaos!

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

I remember the first year I raced here, I took pictures of the entrance. I was taking pictures. I hoped one day to race here in May.
Fernando Alonso on Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 3rd 2017

I was going good but then I slipped in my own drool.
Helio Castroneves on the return to road courses
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.

F1 is for sissies, this is proper racing, you can quote me on that!

It was a very good test in terms of outright speed, but I did destroy a car the first day.

The track is narrower than I thought! You watch the television and you see three cars alongside on the main straight - now I am in the car on the main straight and it's hard to imagine how you can fit three cars there at speed.
