I think Briscoe and I had a pretty good race going on, but we got what we got.

Whoever has got the big balls is going to go fast!
Helio Castroneves
I'm throwing this one out to Dan. This is his hometown, this is his car.
James Hinchcliffe after his first career victory, St. Petersburg, March 24th 2013

I was a craft beer and a wallet chain away from being a hipster!

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
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.
Bobby Rahal on the benefits of a spec series, Racer.com, May 18th 2016
This is just an excellent race and to be a part of the history, I'm really grateful for that.
Roger Yasukawa, Indy 2007
I am a connoisseur of information!
Conor Daly on silly season rumours, Trackside, September 13th 2016
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
Rick Mears on what's wrong with IndyCar, Motorsport.com, October 28th 2015
Racing IndyCars at Richmond is like flying fighter jets in a gymnasium.
Eddie Cheever Jr.
I promise you this: it isn't the last you've seen of me at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. My last time there will not be a day when I'm walking out with my tail between my legs.
Paul Tracy, Indy Bump Day 2010
I came in not knowing what to expect. I basically fell in love with IndyCar.

Without the IRL, a lot of guys would never have been able to show what they can do.
Tony Stewart, May 2007
Eyes on the starter...
Tom Carnegie
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.
Fernando Alonso after his first test at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 3rd 2017
Maybe he should start thinking about driving and stop thinking about dancing because that was a stupid move.
Tomas Scheckter on Helio Castroneves, Detroit 2007
It was talent and skill, that's how I did it. A masterful display of driving ability!

Let's wait and watch.

It's just great, pure racing.

Rick Mears is a great race car driver. Hopefully I have plenty of years to try to earn his respect again.
Tony Kanaan, Detroit 2007
Having a pulse should make you want to attend the 500.
James Hinchcliffe on what should make you want to attend the 500, via Twitter, April 2012
Some of the drivers roll out this 'safety' word, and suddenly it ties everybody's hands. But those arguments make no sense anyway. Remove downforce and you actually improve safety
Rick Mears on downforce, Motorsport.com, October 28th 2015
Everyone remembers the pole winner for two weeks. Everyone remembers the race winner for life.
Dan Wheldon on the Indy 500
The things that play on your mind the most are the ones that just got away.
Buddy Lazier on the Indy 500
If I have to race until I am 86 years old, I am going to race until I win another Indianapolis 500.
Dan Wheldon after finishing 2nd in the 2010 Indianapolis 500
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.

Who is the buff guy in blue with the big #Schnozolla?
Chip Ganassi on Tony Kanaan's Family Feud appearance, via Twitter, July 26th 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.
Ed Carpenter after the 2009 Indianapolis 500
You've only seen me smile here.
Romain Grosjean on being in IndyCar, after the GMR Grand Prix, IMS, May 15th 2021
I kind of have half an idea of what it means to win this race now. I couldn't be happier.
Dario Franchitti on winning the 91st Indy 500
Whatever you heard, somebody made it up. For the first two days, he talked nonsense because he had a concussion. It doesn't matter what he was saying. He doesn't even remember it.
Tony Kanaan on the rumours of Dario Franchitti's retirement after Houston, 2013
We'll be fine. I'll take them to Six Flags tomorrow and we'll all be fine.
