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!

It's always sad to be out of a race but I'm happy that I walked away; it was a nasty, nasty crash.

I am a connoisseur of information!
Conor Daly on silly season rumours, Trackside, September 13th 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!

You don't gotta win by five seconds - you just gotta win.
Tony Kanaan, Motegi 2007
I'm tired of being nice about it. The fact is, grip created by aerodynamic downforce is our enemy... At the moment, the downforce is so great that it masks the handling and hurts the racing
Rick Mears on what's wrong with IndyCar, Motorsport.com, October 28th 2015
That was the hairiest day I've ever had.

No way. That's the best part about our cars, no power steering, high aero, get it done.

We won a 500-mile race - not the right one, but we won a 500-miler...

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

I just kept focused, focused, focused, all day long, getting every corner perfect.
