James Hinchcliffe on crashing out at Long Beach, April 22nd 2013
It takes a lot of guts to expose yourself in front of millions of people, in front of all the media, in front of all your peers. If somebody came to me and said, "Hey, you want to run Texas in an IRL car," I'd say, "Hell, no. I don't want to get embarrassed." She's doing that. I have a lot of respect for that.

3-horse chase. Power, Dixie and GR
Curt Cavin with a new twist on an old saying, GP of Baltimore 2013

Simon Pagenaud on the 2016 season, ESPN.com, September 18th 2016
Time to go to the back row party!

Ryan Hunter-Reay on the dangers of racing an IndyCar, Pocono, August 23rd 2015
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
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

Broke a glass at a restaurant. Apologize to the waiter, he looks at me, says "Accidents happen. YOU know what I mean!"

Fernando Alonso after crashing in practice, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 15th 2019

I'm 19 years old, I drive Indy cars... I'm happy.
