    Simon Pagenaud on insomnia, Twitter, 4:31 AM, July 23rd 2019

    Rick Mears on what's wrong with IndyCar, Motorsport.com, October 28th 2015

  • If he wins this race with what he has to work with, they ought to name this place after him.

  • 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.

    Ed Carpenter after the 2009 Indianapolis 500

    Marco Andretti, Kansas 2007

  • 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.

    Dan Wheldon, Kansas 2007
