    Marco Andretti, Indy 2006

  • What makes IndyCar racing so good is there's not much you can do on your car to differentiate it from the others. It's only dampers, third springs. There's the aero with the aero kits – and hopefully those are going away.

  • That's a good way to lose a championship.

    Tony Kanaan, Kansas 2007

  • Finishing in the Top-10 here was because of nutrition.

  • I WILL win at Kentucky.

    Will Power, Chicago 2010

  • 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?

    Curt Cavin on Trackside, May 13th 2010

  • I prefer to be here, even 34th, then being at home like last year.

    Fernando Alonso on the Indy 500, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 19th 2019

    Rick Mears on downforce, Motorsport.com, October 28th 2015

    Graham Rahal on the Kentucky 300, August 2009

  • I was frustrated since Motegi and wanted to prove a point. When you're in a competitive package, you can't let points slip. I can eat breakfast tomorrow morning now instead of stabbing my fork into the table.
