I keep getting asked by Europeans, drivers also, if racing around IMS was boring an' easy. I just want to shake my head and walk away.
Connor Daly, June 6th 2013, via Twitter
...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
I am stupid.
Zach Veach on Zach Veach after an off track excursion, IMS, July 4th 2020
We are trying to fix them but when you start behind the eight ball like last year you are playing catch-up and you will continue to play catch-up until we get rid of these stupid kits!
Michael Andretti on aerokits, Autosport.com, 15th April 2016
It was a very good test in terms of outright speed, but I did destroy a car the first day.
Dan Wheldon, Homestead test 2007
I'm a little rough around the edges like him and I say what I feel, there's no B.S. and that's one of the things I've always admired about him.
Paul Tracy on AJ Foyt, May 2009
...if everyone agrees on a spec kit, IndyCar needs to really use the chance to get something that looks good, doesn't have all this winglet crap stuck all over it, and doesn't create all this dirty air.
Will Power on aerokits, motorsport.com, May 4th 2016
Patience is a virtue... and someone wasn't very virtuous today.

If someone said choose one race to win, just one, and that was the only race you ever got to win, it would be the Indy 500.
Jack Harvey on the Indianapolis 500, indianapolismotorspeedway.com, February 21st 2019
Everyone remembers the pole winner for two weeks. Everyone remembers the race winner for life.
Dan Wheldon on the Indy 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
Do you still remember how to celebrate these things?!

It's a living, breathing, organism.

I can tell you one thing, with 50 to go, I thought we were going to go home and close our tent.
Roger Penske, Indy 2006
When you go home and you're slow, there's nothing you can do. But when you go home under these conditions it's kind of tough.
Alex Tagliani, Indy 500 Bump Day 2009
The Indianapolis 500 is about the fastest 33 Indy car drivers going for one prize. If they happen to come from America, that's great.
Tony Stewart, May 2007
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
My picture isn't everywhere, but people recognize me. I'm telling you, it's the nose.

I get one more opportunity to head into the defining racing venue of my career with a single, achievable goal: Win.

The things that play on your mind the most are the ones that just got away.

The Indy 500 is one of the greatest events in the sport. Drivers all over the world know this. I belong there. Because I'm a racer.

It looks so easy when you watch it on TV, but it's not.

I'm a moving chicane out here!

It's a new... track... record!
Tom Carnegie
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.
Mikhail Aleshin on drivers who are too scared to run the Indy 500, May 16th 2017
There comes a time in a race where money doesn't matter, living doesn't matter. Winning is the only thing that matters, and so when you go into those corners, it's winning that tells all.
Al Unser Jr.
With photos, sometimes people get old. Not me, but some people do.
Helio Castroneves, June 2009
I'm 38. I'm a legit 38. I don't know how old you are, but I'm legit 38. March 3 1981.

Paul Tracy, Indy Bump Day 2010
I came in not knowing what to expect. I basically fell in love with IndyCar.

Danica Patrick after Iowa 2009, via Twitter
I think this is something that will really change the complexion of the sport for a long time to come, so this is big

Someone asked me if I win the Indy 500 if I'd still retire? I'd still retire. What better way to go out?

Hope you're all snug in your beds, while Indycars dance in your head...

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
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
Less than a mile an hour and I'm on pole. It's tough. It's IndyCar. It's why we love it.

Now it's obvious we were too conservative, we should have just gone for it

If you're an open-wheel racer and not at Indy in May, you're not really a race car driver. You just think you are.

Most importantly, for the Indy 500 we'll probably be all okay, and that's cause to be happy.
