    Tony Kanaan on Will Power, Toronto, July 2011

  • Howard and me set the first and third fastest times of the day, and we both got beaten to grid slot 33 by a kid in Methodist Hospital with a smoking wreck of a car. The magic of Indy, huh?

    Paul Tracy, Indy Bump Day 2010

  • You don't pay me to run second.

    Dan Wheldon to Chip Ganassi, Nashville 2006

    Tony Kanaan on Dan and Danica, Milwaukee 2007

    Rick Mears on downforce, Motorsport.com, October 28th 2015

  • This is just an excellent race and to be a part of the history, I'm really grateful for that.

    Roger Yasukawa, Indy 2007

    Terry Angstadt, February 22nd 2008

    Roger Penske on his older two drivers, motorsport.com, March 22nd 2016
