Eyes on the starter...

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.
Al Unser Jr.
Good morning from the start/finish line at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
Tom Carnegie
I arrived in Turn 1 and I was convinced that I was doing flat out, but the foot was not flat - it had its own life, it was not connected to my brain at that moment.
Fernando Alonso on Turn 1 commitment at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 3rd 2017
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.

A.J. Foyt on qualifying for his first Indianapolis 500 mile race
If they want to be on the front page of USA Today, they can be my guest. If I ever want attention, I'm just going to get out of the car and beat the hell out of somebody.
Tony Kanaan on Dan and Danica, Milwaukee 2007
It was so scary for me. I don't know what else to say. I don't know what happened but it felt like my front and rear wings were upside down.
Marco Andretti, Kansas 2007
P2 to P8 to P20 to who knows to P2. Confirmed… Portland IS weird.

I think it's is a long putt, so I think we're safe for a while.

Do you still remember how to celebrate these things?!

Sam Hornish Jr, Indy 2006
Do you think I give a flying f*** what Buddy Rice thinks?

Sam Hornish Jr on Tomas Scheckter, Texas 2005
I'm just so f***ing disappointed!
Kosuke Matsuura, St Pete's 2007
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
It's just crazy. If I never won another pole, I wouldn't care. Almost.
James Hinchcliffe on winning the pole for the 100th Indy 500, May 22nd 2016

This is just an excellent race and to be a part of the history, I'm really grateful for that.

I didn't leave. I was terminated.

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