Rinus VeeKay on finishing 5th at the IMS Road Course, July 4th 2020
I'm a moving chicane out here!
Juan Pablo Montoya, lap 42 at St Pete's, March 30th 2014
I'm a little rough around the edges like him and I say what I feel, there's no B.S. and that's one of the things I've always admired about him.
Paul Tracy on AJ Foyt, May 2009
Having raced all over the planet, I would say that IndyCar is the toughest beast yet to master for me.
Felix Rosenqvist, Motorsports.com, September 17th 2019
I don't want to take a defeatist attitude here but it's going to be ugly. If IndyCar goes the domed skid route, we're going to be taking a knife to a gunfight.
Sam Schmidt on Chevy's advantage with domed skids, Racer.com, April 7th 2016
Well, the elephant in the room is the aero kits.
Marco Andretti on why the Honda teams were struggling, Barber, April 27th 2015
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
Someone asked me if I win the Indy 500 if I'd still retire? I'd still retire. What better way to go out?
Danica Patrick on her final race, racing.ap.org, March 7th 2018
I can't believe I'm here. It's so cool!
Mike Conway in victory lane, Long Beach 2014
The worst thing about crashing A.J.'s car twice in two days is you still have to go to dinner with him. And he makes you buy, and then he eats your bowl of ice cream, too.
Billy Boat
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?
Paul Tracy, Indy Bump Day 2010
Not bad for a part timer ;o)
Graham Rahal on finishing 5th at Toronto, via Twitter, July 2010
I was going through there as hard as I could. It was for everything. It was for all the marbles.
Sam Hornish Jr, Indy 2006
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
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
If you run around in the back with the squirrels, you're bound to get your nuts cracked.
PJ Chesson
This track, believe it or not, has done worse to me in the past, and we came back swinging.
James Hinchcliffe on Indianapolis Motor Speedway, Bump Day, May 19th 2018
Cheever had a problem with my dad, he had a problem with me, and now he's taking it out on Marco.
Michael Andretti, Watkins Glen 2006
The Indianapolis 500 is about the fastest 33 Indy car drivers going for one prize. If they happen to come from America, that's great.
Tony Stewart, May 2007
It's a living, breathing, organism.
Eddie Cheever on Indianapolis Motor Speedway
Some of the drivers who don't want to do the Indy 500, they just have small balls. I think that's the only explanation.
Mikhail Aleshin on drivers who are too scared to run the Indy 500, May 16th 2017
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
I am a connoisseur of information!
Conor Daly on silly season rumours, Trackside, September 13th 2016
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
The walls are white, the track is grey, the grass is green, and the sky is blue... your job is to keep them all where they belong.
Johnny Rutherford's advice to Indy 500 rookies
He's grounded.
Bryan Herta to Marco Andretti on Colton Herta knocking Marco out of P1 in final practice, Long Beach, April 14th 2019
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
I still have the passion to drive the hell out of it!
Juan Pablo Montoya on his motivation, NBCSports.com, July 12th 2016
They're creating a much bigger problem than the one they're trying to solve. And it's mind-boggling, absolutely mind-boggling, that they don't see it and that these discussions have even made it this far.
James Hinchcliffe on INDYCAR mandating domed skids, Motorsport.com, April 5th 2016
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
Rick Mears on downforce, Motorsport.com, October 28th 2015
This has been the best season of my career in motorsport and I've learned so much. We'll be coming back to win this thing next year.
Will Power on losing to Dario Franchitti, Homestead, 2010
I plan to be here hopefully until I'm into my 40s, and to accomplish something like Scott has done.
Alexander Rossi on building an IndyCar legacy, Mobil1TheGrid.com, December 10th 2018
Back at the big house next weekend, kids.
Alexander Rossi on the Harvest GP, Twitter.com, 24th September 2020
It's great that it's one minute after six!
Marty Roth, Indy Bump Day 2007
Time to go to the back row party!
Ryan Hunter Reay, Indy 500 Bump Day 2009
It's always sad to be out of a race but I'm happy that I walked away; it was a nasty, nasty crash.
Tony Kanaan at the 2009 Indianapolis 500
Less than a mile an hour and I'm on pole. It's tough. It's IndyCar. It's why we love it.
Scott McLaughlan on qualifying at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 22nd 2023, via Speed Street
When you go home and you're slow, there's nothing you can do. But when you go home under these conditions it's kind of tough.
Alex Tagliani, Indy 500 Bump Day 2009
I never would've had my opportunity to race at Indy if it weren't for Tony George and the IRL.
Tony Stewart, May 2007
I think this is something that will really change the complexion of the sport for a long time to come, so this is big
Jay Frye on the Aeroscreen, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, October 2nd 2019
The things that play on your mind the most are the ones that just got away.
Buddy Lazier on the Indy 500
I wish Beaux Barfield was officiating when I was driving - I'd have gotten a lot less penalties!
Paul Tracy on lax penalties for avoidable contact, Long Beach 2014
When you tug at a guy in the pit lane, I think that is taking advantage of your gender, because it puts me in an awkward position.
Dan Wheldon on Danica Patrick, June 2007
It was talent and skill, that's how I did it. A masterful display of driving ability!

I am stupid.
Zach Veach on Zach Veach after an off track excursion, IMS, July 4th 2020

PJ Chesson on Mothers Day
Fernando Alonso on the difference between an IndyCar and an F1 car, May 3rd 2017
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.
Robin Miller on Kevin Kalkoven, February 2008
There is nothing like winning the Indianapolis 500 and fortunately I was able to do so.
Eddie Cheever Jr.
