Fernando Alonso on what his mother would think about the Indy 500, motor.as.com, April 20th 2016
It's a Top-10 but after finishing here fifth last year nothing less than that would really be satisfying because you always want more.

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.

Marcus Ericsson on The Indianapolis 500, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 2023

That's a good way to lose a championship.

I'm 19 years old, I drive Indy cars... I'm happy.
Marco Andretti, July 2006
Everyone wants to pick a fight with me. Whatever.
Sage Karam on everyone wanting to pick a fight with him, IndyStar.com, August 3rd 2015

Gentlemen, start your engines.

Helio lives for this. This is his passion. He loves Indy.
Simon Pagenaud, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 15th 2018
I'm tired of being nice about it. The fact is, grip created by aerodynamic downforce is our enemy... At the moment, the downforce is so great that it masks the handling and hurts the racing
