I need a nap now.

Now they've got competition and they are not talking about winning. I feel like they want to sit around and hold hands and sing. I want to win.

The only reason I'm wearin' it is so I didn't leave it in no hotel nowhere!

Hope you're all snug in your beds, while Indycars dance in your head...
Simon Pagenaud on insomnia, Twitter, 4:31 AM, July 23rd 2019
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
She probably does not know what that is, so I can say I'm going to Las Vegas to play poker and she'll think it's something like that!

At 220mph friendship, risk and victory become extremely volatile.

If he wins this race with what he has to work with, they ought to name this place after him.

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

You know, if you're going to have an example of how not to go about things, this is 100 percent how you would do it.
Scott Dixon on Alex Palou's contract dispute, Toronto, July 15th 2022

Simon Pagenaud on the 2016 season, ESPN.com, September 18th 2016

Paul Tracy on AJ Foyt, May 2009
The worst thing about crashing A.J.'s car twice in two days is you still have to go to dinner with him. And he makes you buy, and then he eats your bowl of ice cream, too.
Billy Boat
If you're an open-wheel racer and not at Indy in May, you're not really a race car driver. You just think you are.

Tony Kanaan, Detroit 2007
Why do you think there are so many skid marks? It's not because it's a lovely corner.
John Andretti, Indy 2010
It's just crazy. If I never won another pole, I wouldn't care. Almost.
