I think Briscoe and I had a pretty good race going on, but we got what we got.
Scott Dixon on losing the race and the championship, Homestead 2009
Again, I was scared to death. I had zero grip, and I was lifting at the start/finish line going into one. It's embarrassing.

We are unified.
Terry Angstadt, February 22nd 2008
Brad Pitt got a super license before me. Tough.

I've got the Grandfathers Club with Helio and Juan, right?!

If someone said choose one race to win, just one, and that was the only race you ever got to win, it would be the Indy 500.

TrackSideOnline, May 2009
Someone asked me if I win the Indy 500 if I'd still retire? I'd still retire. What better way to go out?

The Indianapolis 500 is about the fastest 33 Indy car drivers going for one prize. If they happen to come from America, that's great.
Tony Stewart, May 2007
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
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.
I am a connoisseur of information!
Conor Daly on silly season rumours, Trackside, September 13th 2016

I keep getting asked by Europeans, drivers also, if racing around IMS was boring an' easy. I just want to shake my head and walk away.
