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.

That's a good way to lose a championship.
Tony Kanaan, Kansas 2007
No way. That's the best part about our cars, no power steering, high aero, get it done.
Scott McLaughlin on adding power steering, via Twitter, April 26th 2021
This has been the best season of my career in motorsport and I've learned so much. We'll be coming back to win this thing next year.

I get one more opportunity to head into the defining racing venue of my career with a single, achievable goal: Win.

I arrived in Turn 1 and I was convinced that I was doing flat out, but the foot was not flat - it had its own life, it was not connected to my brain at that moment.
Fernando Alonso on Turn 1 commitment at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 3rd 2017
Milka, if you're gonna go that slow you gotta drive your mirrors, hon'!
Ryan Hunter-Reay to Milka Duno after Watkins Glen qualifying, July 2010
Why do you think there are so many skid marks? It's not because it's a lovely corner.
John Andretti, Indy 2010
Wild thought. This 18th Indy 500 means I've been in IndyCar for exactly half of my life. 👀😅

I prefer to be here, even 34th, then being at home like last year.

Some of the drivers who don't want to do the Indy 500, they just have small balls. I think that's the only explanation.
Mikhail Aleshin on drivers who are too scared to run the Indy 500, May 16th 2017

It looks so easy when you watch it on TV, but it's not.

3-horse chase. Power, Dixie and GR
Curt Cavin with a new twist on an old saying, GP of Baltimore 2013
There comes a time in a race where money doesn't matter, living doesn't matter. Winning is the only thing that matters, and so when you go into those corners, it's winning that tells all.
Al Unser Jr.
When I saw he was slowing down, I have to say it was a relief. I thought, 'Now we can finally unleash the beast inside and go for the win.'
Simon Pagenaud on Will Power's misfortune at Sonoma, ESPN.com, September 18th 2016

Ed Carpenter to Tony Kanaan on the suggestion that he was over 40, Gateway, August 24th 2019
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
I've seen this place be absolutely great to me, and I've seen it wrench my heart from my body.

I was just hanging back there waiting for someone to make a mistake and it turned out to be me!

Fernando Alonso on what his mother would think about the Indy 500, motor.as.com, April 20th 2016
Racing IndyCars at Richmond is like flying fighter jets in a gymnasium.

This is a great decision by IndyCar. Plus it gives me another month to get ready.

Tony Stewart, May 2007
When Will was going off on Versus, I was cracking up. I was like, man, I didn't know you could talk like that! And I never knew you could say 'wanker' on TV, but that's my new word for now on... so I guess something good did come out of Toronto!
Tony Kanaan on Will Power, Toronto, July 2011
Heeeeere's something that's amazing... i-dent-ical laps.

I'm a little rough around the edges like him and I say what I feel, there's no B.S. and that's one of the things I've always admired about him.
Paul Tracy on AJ Foyt, May 2009
I'm the happiest guy on earth right now!
