She was acting like a spoiled brat. I don't respect that. I tried to step away. She kept grabbing on me like a dog that wanted to bite my ankles.

This is a huge day for the IndyCar Series and for our sport as a whole, for sure.

Dan Wheldon on Iowa Speedway, June 2009
I mean this guy can't even keep his lies straight. He's told so many in the last week, he's not sure what the truth is.

Pounding down toward the yard of bricks...

Paul Tracy on AJ Foyt, May 2009

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