Alex Tagliani, Indy 500 Bump Day 2009
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
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.

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

Tomas Scheckter on Helio Castroneves, Detroit 2007
If they want to be on the front page of USA Today, they can be my guest. If I ever want attention, I'm just going to get out of the car and beat the hell out of somebody.
Tony Kanaan on Dan and Danica, Milwaukee 2007
I lifted a little, but I didn't touch the brake.

Will Power on testing the Aeroscreen, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, October 2nd 2019
Rick Mears is a great race car driver. Hopefully I have plenty of years to try to earn his respect again.

We'd love to see Buddy Rice in a car and in the Indy 500, but as best we can tell, no driver has ever qualified for the Indy 500 from their couch.
TrackSideOnline, May 2009
Do you think I give a flying f*** what Buddy Rice thinks?
Dan Wheldon
Having raced all over the planet, I would say that IndyCar is the toughest beast yet to master for me.

If someone said choose one race to win, just one, and that was the only race you ever got to win, it would be the Indy 500.
Jack Harvey on the Indianapolis 500, indianapolismotorspeedway.com, February 21st 2019
Beautiful chaos!
