Beautiful chaos!
David Malukas on the racing at Texas Motor Speedway, April 2nd 2023
The Indy 500 is one of the greatest events in the sport. Drivers all over the world know this. I belong there. Because I'm a racer.
Fernando Alonso on The Indy 500, The Players Tribune, May 18th 2017

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

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
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.

Most importantly, for the Indy 500 we'll probably be all okay, and that's cause to be happy.
Mikhail Aleshin on Honda's prospects for the 2017 season, Motorsport.com, February 2nd 2017
Obviously we always see the good days, but Gil de Ferran told me if you can have a bad day and nobody notices, that's how you do a really good job - and that's how you win a championship.

Heeeeere's something that's amazing... i-dent-ical laps.
Tom Carnegie
It's amazing how different an Indycar is from anything else on a racetrack.

Graham Rahal on the Indianapolis 500, Racer.com, June 4th 2016
I'm 19 years old, I drive Indy cars... I'm happy.

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.

Will he get through? Where is he? Where is he? There he is!

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.

Robbie Buhl, after winning at WDW in 2000
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.
