Fernando Alonso on what his mother would think about the Indy 500, motor.as.com, April 20th 2016
Some of the drivers roll out this 'safety' word, and suddenly it ties everybody's hands. But those arguments make no sense anyway. Remove downforce and you actually improve safety

It felt way better than I ever thought it was going to feel!

I'm 19 years old, I drive Indy cars... I'm happy.
