The Indy 500 is the biggest race in the world. I don't think it's even debatable. It is.
Dan Wheldon
This place isn't easy. It's not supposed to be easy. This place starts the 33 fastest, best-prepared cars. Obviously, I missed.

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.

Will he get through? Where is he? Where is he? There he is!

Broke a glass at a restaurant. Apologize to the waiter, he looks at me, says "Accidents happen. YOU know what I mean!"
James Hinchcliffe via Twitter, December 17th 2015
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 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.

James Hinchcliffe on INDYCAR mandating domed skids, Motorsport.com, April 5th 2016

Robin Miller on Kevin Kalkoven, February 2008
The minute he got in front of me, he slowed down half-a-second a lap because he knows I'm fighting him for the championship and he was out of the race. It's probably the most unsportsmanlike thing I've ever seen on the racetrack, apart from shunting someone into a wall.
Wade Cunningham on Sebastien Saavedra, Iowa 2009
Downforce is the enemy of racing.

...one of the things that has always been wrong with that theory that NASCAR is the enemy... and they are... is because the people at NASCAR need to protect NASCAR.

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

If we're not racing hard, we're not racing.
