When you go home and you're slow, there's nothing you can do. But when you go home under these conditions it's kind of tough.

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 after winning the Indy 500
Some of the drivers roll out this 'safety' word, and suddenly it ties everybody's hands. But those arguments make no sense anyway. Remove downforce and you actually improve safety
Rick Mears on downforce, Motorsport.com, October 28th 2015
Going into Texas with four wheels on the car is pretty exciting!

Racing IndyCars at Richmond is like flying fighter jets in a gymnasium.
