Graham Rahal on finishing 5th at Toronto, via Twitter, July 2010
I'm 38. I'm a legit 38. I don't know how old you are, but I'm legit 38. March 3 1981.
Ed Carpenter to Tony Kanaan on the suggestion that he was over 40, Gateway, August 24th 2019
You won't believe it!
Tom Carnegie
We'll see how it unfolds, and we're going to have to give each other respect and the space on the track.
Danica Patrick on Dan Wheldon, June 2007
The things that play on your mind the most are the ones that just got away.
Buddy Lazier on the Indy 500
Gentlemen, start your engines.
Wilbur Shaw
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
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.
Fernando Alonso after his first test at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 3rd 2017
All up it was one of the toughest weekends of my career in ANY form of motorsport, and you can sometimes learn more from your roughest days out there.

We'll be fine. I'll take them to Six Flags tomorrow and we'll all be fine.

With photos, sometimes people get old. Not me, but some people do.

I just can't wait to get back in the car. I wonder if I'm still any good.
Will Power on the long off season, St Petersburg, March 21st 2013
I told him I'd follow him anywhere he went, as long as it was on the racetrack.
Sam Hornish Jr on Tomas Scheckter, Texas 2005
The minute he got in front of me, he slowed down half-a-second a lap because he knows I'm fighting him for the championship and he was out of the race. It's probably the most unsportsmanlike thing I've ever seen on the racetrack, apart from shunting someone into a wall.
Wade Cunningham on Sebastien Saavedra, Iowa 2009
The race that made the IRL famous!
Eddie Gossage on the Bombardier Lear Jet 500, May 2009
It was so scary for me. I don't know what else to say. I don't know what happened but it felt like my front and rear wings were upside down.
Marco Andretti, Kansas 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 the rumours of Dario Franchitti's retirement after Houston, 2013
Having a pulse should make you want to attend the 500.
James Hinchcliffe on what should make you want to attend the 500, via Twitter, April 2012
You know, bison do seem like some very American animals.
Conor Daly on Bison, IndyCar.com March 23rd 2021
I think Danica's pretty aggressive in our cars. I mean, you know especially if you catch her at the right time of the month, she might be trading plenty of paint out there!
Ed Carpenter, July 2006
I've never been so happy to be in last place.
Ryan Hunter Reay, Indy 500 Bump Day 2009
Good news is we've won every race we've finished!

I'm just so f***ing disappointed!
Kosuke Matsuura, St Pete's 2007
I came in not knowing what to expect. I basically fell in love with IndyCar.

It's always sad to be out of a race but I'm happy that I walked away; it was a nasty, nasty crash.
Tony Kanaan at the 2009 Indianapolis 500
I'm 19 years old, I drive Indy cars... I'm happy.

Any time I get to come to Indianapolis, any time I get to participate in the greatest spectacle in motor racing, it's a great day.
Paul Diatlovitch, Indy Bump Day 2007
To finish first you must first finish.
Rick Mears
Back at the big house next weekend, kids.

The Indy 500 was the defining stage of my career.
Mario Andretti
You need to learn how to f***ing count.
Arie Luyendyk, Texas '97
I love this championship and everything it represents. I feel very fortunate to have the opportunity to be here. I wouldn't want to have it any other way.

I wish I could get my deadbeat family to participate.

Broke a glass at a restaurant. Apologize to the waiter, he looks at me, says "Accidents happen. YOU know what I mean!"
James Hinchcliffe via Twitter, December 17th 2015
You don't gotta win by five seconds - you just gotta win.
Tony Kanaan, Motegi 2007
The day started when I walked into Gasoline Alley and saw the grandstands. It was my first time here on race day and it was quite unbelievable.
Alex Tagliani on the 2009 Indianapolis 500
Everyone thinks that running in dirty air causes the front end to wash out, but actually it affects the whole car and you just can't follow someone close in fast or medium-speed corners since the aerokits came in.
Will Power on aerokits, Motorsport.com, May 4th 2016
My Father said if you are going to win one race, make sure it is the Indianapolis 500
Eddie Cheever after winning the Indy 500
It felt way better than I ever thought it was going to feel!
Ed Carpenter on finally winning his first race, Kansas, October 2011
That's the kind of incident that leaves skidmarks *inside* the cockpit!
Tom Sneva
I wasn't thinking, 'That's Eddie [Cheever] and he's in an Infiniti and so I need to beat him.' I was thinking, 'That's Eddie, and I want to kick his ass!'
Robbie Buhl, after winning at WDW in 2000
Time to go to the back row party!
Ryan Hunter Reay, Indy 500 Bump Day 2009
You've only seen me smile here.

I can't believe it. I cannot believe it. What a year for this Target team. It was so much fun to be a part of.

NASCAR has nothing on us. Look at the crowd at Indy – that's three Daytona 500s all in one place.
Graham Rahal on the Indianapolis 500, Racer.com, June 4th 2016
Most importantly, for the Indy 500 we'll probably be all okay, and that's cause to be happy.

This is a huge day for the IndyCar Series and for our sport as a whole, for sure.
Michael Andretti, February 22nd 2008
If we're racing on Superspeedways with catch fencing, I fear we're just playing the odds until we have something protecting our heads. It’s a scary thing to say.
Ryan Hunter-Reay on canopies, Racer Magazine, 15 September 2014
I sometimes think that Graham doesn't have the right filter for this Sport!
Curt Cavin on Graham Rahal speaking his mind, Traxkaide, May 23rd 2023
