Howard and me set the first and third fastest times of the day, and we both got beaten to grid slot 33 by a kid in Methodist Hospital with a smoking wreck of a car. The magic of Indy, huh?

Do you still remember how to celebrate these things?!

Justin Wilson on Brian Clauson's patchwork DW12, bump day, Indy 2012

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
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

It's a living, breathing, organism.
Eddie Cheever on Indianapolis Motor Speedway
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 think this is something that will really change the complexion of the sport for a long time to come, so this is big

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
With photos, sometimes people get old. Not me, but some people do.
Helio Castroneves, June 2009
I can't control what size I am and how I'm built. All I know is the NBA doesn't lower the hoop for short guys.
Danica Patrick, June 2005
I think it's is a long putt, so I think we're safe for a while.

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

You don't gotta win by five seconds - you just gotta win.
Tony Kanaan, Motegi 2007
There is nothing like winning the Indianapolis 500 and fortunately I was able to do so.

...if everyone agrees on a spec kit, IndyCar needs to really use the chance to get something that looks good, doesn't have all this winglet crap stuck all over it, and doesn't create all this dirty air.
