I know a lot of people say that Iowa is in the middle of nowhere, but you know what, we get such a great crowd and they're so enthusiastic. As a driver you could put me in paradise, but if there's nobody in the grandstands then it's not good racing.
Dan Wheldon on Iowa Speedway, June 2009
Let's wait and watch.

Fernando Alonso on Turn 1 commitment at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 3rd 2017

It's always sad to be out of a race but I'm happy that I walked away; it was a nasty, nasty crash.

Robin Miller on Kevin Kalkoven, February 2008
The toughest people out there passing me are my teammates, and I don't get that. I think three of the four of us get what the camaraderie of Andretti Green Racing is.

I drove it like I stole it!
