I'm a moving chicane out here!

The last time this flag was on the front row of the Indy500, I wasn’t born. Makes me proud.

Beautiful chaos!

James Hinchcliffe on bumping at Indy, May 19th 2018

I think the IRL has been poised for a long time to be discovered by a lot of people.

Chip Ganassi

That's a good way to lose a championship.

Finishing in the Top-10 here was because of nutrition.

Patience is a virtue... and someone wasn't very virtuous today.

James Hinchcliffe on an unnamed driver, Long Beach 2014

I'd have finished my career very disappointed had I not won the Indy 500. It's an amazing feeling and an amazing event.

Will Power on winning the 102nd Indy 500, racer.com, August 7th 2018

Heeeeere's something that's amazing... i-dent-ical laps.

Gentlemen, start your engines.

It was a tough day – really disappointing... I guess it was a good day in reality.

Josef Newgarden on finishing 7th at the IMS Road Course, July 4th 2020

I was going good but then I slipped in my own drool.

Helio Castroneves on the return to road courses

I'm the happiest guy on earth right now!

Rinus VeeKay on finishing 5th at the IMS Road Course, July 4th 2020

I'm 19 years old, I drive Indy cars... I'm happy.

Marco Andretti, July 2006

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

Then again my favorite films of all time are Fast and the Furious 1 through 8 or however many of them there are.

The things that play on your mind the most are the ones that just got away.

Buddy Lazier on the Indy 500

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

If he wins this race with what he has to work with, they ought to name this place after him.

John Barnes on Sam Hornish Jr, indy 2003

I'm just so f***ing disappointed!

I love this championship and everything it represents. I feel very fortunate to have the opportunity to be here. I wouldn't want to have it any other way.

Alexander Rossi on IndyCar, The Indy Star, September 14th 2018

There is nothing like winning the Indianapolis 500 and fortunately I was able to do so.

I bet you'd love to drive one, you just wouldn't want to crash one!

Charlie Kimball to Dale Jr. via Twitter, Pocono, August 23rd 2015

We are unified.

From now on, Scheckter, when used as a verb, means, "To steal one's wireless internet access."

Tony Kanaan's blog, May 2007

I hope all the fans out there were as excited about that race as I am. It was awesome doing so much passing. Racing can't get any better!

Graham Rahal on the Kentucky 300, August 2009

This is a great decision by IndyCar. Plus it gives me another month to get ready.

Jimmie Johnson on the 2021 season opener being delayed, via Twitter, January 6th 2021

Heeeeeee's on it!

Tom Carnegie

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

PJ Chesson

It's a living, breathing, organism.

Eddie Cheever on Indianapolis Motor Speedway

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

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

I'm 38. I'm a legit 38. I don't know how old you are, but I'm legit 38. March 3 1981.

Since last fall I've been wondering what in the hell it's going to feel like, and now I know.

Paul Page, Michigan '99

It's like a reunion to come back here every May. I've never retired. I always say, "I'm not done yet."

Parnelli Jones, Indy 2007

I didn't leave. I was terminated.

Sebastien Bourdais on the flip side of the Coyne, NBCSports.com, November 22nd 2019

I remember the first year I raced here, I took pictures of the entrance. I was taking pictures. I hoped one day to race here in May.

Fernando Alonso on Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 3rd 2017

She probably does not know what that is, so I can say I'm going to Las Vegas to play poker and she'll think it's something like that!

Fernando Alonso on what his mother would think about the Indy 500, motor.as.com, April 20th 2016

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

Back at the big house next weekend, kids.

Chip Ganassi on whether he'd allow Jaun Pablo Montoya to test for Penske, Houston, October 2013

Downforce is the enemy of racing.
