James Hinchcliffe on INDYCAR mandating domed skids, Motorsport.com, April 5th 2016
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
What a day. This place is magical. It is still the 'beginning of the season' for me but everything is starting to fall into place. This is the best month of May, ever.

It's amazing how different an Indycar is from anything else on a racetrack.

Will Power on losing to Dario Franchitti, Homestead, 2010
What makes IndyCar racing so good is there's not much you can do on your car to differentiate it from the others. It's only dampers, third springs. There's the aero with the aero kits – and hopefully those are going away.
Bobby Rahal on the benefits of a spec series, Racer.com, May 18th 2016

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

I prefer to be here, even 34th, then being at home like last year.
Fernando Alonso on the Indy 500, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 19th 2019
Someone asked me if I win the Indy 500 if I'd still retire? I'd still retire. What better way to go out?

I wish Beaux Barfield was officiating when I was driving - I'd have gotten a lot less penalties!

It's a Top-10 but after finishing here fifth last year nothing less than that would really be satisfying because you always want more.
Ed Carpenter after the 2009 Indianapolis 500
This is just an excellent race and to be a part of the history, I'm really grateful for that.

It's just crazy. If I never won another pole, I wouldn't care. Almost.

You need to learn how to f***ing count.
Arie Luyendyk, Texas '97

Graham Rahal on winning at Mid-Ohio, Instagram, August 3rd 2015
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.
Marco Andretti on an unidentified teammate after Milwaukee 2009
