Mikhail Aleshin on Honda's prospects for the 2017 season, Motorsport.com, February 2nd 2017
If they want to be on the front page of USA Today, they can be my guest. If I ever want attention, I'm just going to get out of the car and beat the hell out of somebody.

Off to heat yoga with @PitFitTraining. Gonna be sweating like a rapist.

It's just great, pure racing.
Sebastien Bourdais on IndyCar, June 2015

Michael Andretti, Watkins Glen 2006
My mom hasn't played much of a role in my racing career. In fact, I think she still wants me to join the Coast Guard. But I still love her.
PJ Chesson on Mothers Day
Heeeeeee's on it!
Tom Carnegie
Winning is always a great feeling, but winning at your home track, a place that you grew up at and a place that helped you fall in love with the sport of IndyCar racing... this is priceless.

If you run around in the back with the squirrels, you're bound to get your nuts cracked.
PJ Chesson
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

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.

It was a very good test in terms of outright speed, but I did destroy a car the first day.

What makes IndyCar racing so good is there's not much you can do on your car to differentiate it from the others. It's only dampers, third springs. There's the aero with the aero kits – and hopefully those are going away.
