Not bad for a part timer ;o)

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

Tony Kanaan on Will Power, 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?

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.
