    Tony Kanaan, Detroit 2007

    Romain Grosjean on his rookie season, Laguna Seca, September 19th 2021

    Tony Kanaan's blog, May 2007

  • The last I looked, I earned the label of Indy 500 champion; those lobbing unfounded accusations at me have not.

    Eddie Cheever Jr. after Watkins Glen 06

  • 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.
