I can tell you one thing, with 50 to go, I thought we were going to go home and close our tent.
Roger Penske, Indy 2006
I can't believe it. I cannot believe it. What a year for this Target team. It was so much fun to be a part of.

Wild thought. This 18th Indy 500 means I've been in IndyCar for exactly half of my life. 👀😅
Marco Andretti on getting older, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 18th 2023, via Twitter

Pounding down toward the yard of bricks...

With photos, sometimes people get old. Not me, but some people do.

Sam Hornish Jr, Indy 2006
You know, if you're going to have an example of how not to go about things, this is 100 percent how you would do it.

You don't gotta win by five seconds - you just gotta win.
Tony Kanaan, Motegi 2007
There comes a time in a race where money doesn't matter, living doesn't matter. Winning is the only thing that matters, and so when you go into those corners, it's winning that tells all.

Milka, if you're gonna go that slow you gotta drive your mirrors, hon'!

Paul Diatlovitch, Indy Bump Day 2007
Brian Clauson's car got pretty beat up yesterday. It's black and blue all over

It's going to be a close finish. I have the bigger nose, I guess I have a good chance.

Now they've got competition and they are not talking about winning. I feel like they want to sit around and hold hands and sing. I want to win.

The only reason I'm wearin' it is so I didn't leave it in no hotel nowhere!

If he thinks I'm not going to remember that, HE'S CRAZY!
Danica Patrick on Dan Wheldon, Milwaukee 2007
Since last fall I've been wondering what in the hell it's going to feel like, and now I know.

All up it was one of the toughest weekends of my career in ANY form of motorsport, and you can sometimes learn more from your roughest days out there.

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

Everyone remembers the pole winner for two weeks. Everyone remembers the race winner for life.
