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.

You're not going to out-Dixon Dixon!

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

We'll see how it unfolds, and we're going to have to give each other respect and the space on the track.

If we're not racing hard, we're not racing.
Tony Kanaan, St Pete's 2007

Marty Reid, Las Vegas, October 16th 2011
So it was a bad result but good day. Led laps, good restarts, passed people, worked with the car, but finished crap! movin on!!

Some people strap on their helmet and lose their brains.
Graham Rahal on the carnage at Toronto, July 2011
Someone asked me if I win the Indy 500 if I'd still retire? I'd still retire. What better way to go out?
Danica Patrick on her final race, racing.ap.org, March 7th 2018
That's a cool shot of the glowing brake disc!
Colton Herta watching a replay of his pass on Rossi, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, 3rd October 2020
That's a good way to lose a championship.

There is nothing like winning the Indianapolis 500 and fortunately I was able to do so.

I am a connoisseur of information!
Conor Daly on silly season rumours, Trackside, September 13th 2016
I'm a moving chicane out here!
Juan Pablo Montoya, lap 42 at St Pete's, March 30th 2014
...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.
Curt Cavin on Trackside, May 13th 2010
She's just feeling the pressure of not winning races.
Dan Wheldon on Danica Patrick, Milwaukee 2007
It's a living, breathing, organism.

If I ever pit with her again, I'm not racing for this team anymore - ever!

When you tug at a guy in the pit lane, I think that is taking advantage of your gender, because it puts me in an awkward position.
Dan Wheldon on Danica Patrick, June 2007
You need to learn how to f***ing count.
Arie Luyendyk, Texas '97
It's always sad to be out of a race but I'm happy that I walked away; it was a nasty, nasty crash.
Tony Kanaan at the 2009 Indianapolis 500
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
I think Danica's pretty aggressive in our cars. I mean, you know especially if you catch her at the right time of the month, she might be trading plenty of paint out there!
Ed Carpenter, July 2006
We won a 500-mile race - not the right one, but we won a 500-miler...
Will Power on the 2016 season, ESPN.com, September 18th 2016
When Will was going off on Versus, I was cracking up. I was like, man, I didn't know you could talk like that! And I never knew you could say 'wanker' on TV, but that's my new word for now on... so I guess something good did come out of Toronto!
Tony Kanaan on Will Power, Toronto, July 2011
It's going to be a close finish. I have the bigger nose, I guess I have a good chance.

I've never been so happy to be in last place.

You don't gotta win by five seconds - you just gotta win.
Tony Kanaan, Motegi 2007
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.

Eyes on the starter...
Tom Carnegie
It takes a lot of guts to expose yourself in front of millions of people, in front of all the media, in front of all your peers. If somebody came to me and said, "Hey, you want to run Texas in an IRL car," I'd say, "Hell, no. I don't want to get embarrassed." She's doing that. I have a lot of respect for that.
Jeff Burton on Danica Patrick, June 2010
NASCAR has nothing on us. Look at the crowd at Indy – that's three Daytona 500s all in one place.
Graham Rahal on the Indianapolis 500, Racer.com, June 4th 2016

I drove it like I stole it!

I was a craft beer and a wallet chain away from being a hipster!
James Hinchcliffe on beard growth, Tim and Sid's Plays of the Week, September 14th 2015
I think this is something that will really change the complexion of the sport for a long time to come, so this is big
Jay Frye on the Aeroscreen, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, October 2nd 2019
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.
