This place isn't easy. It's not supposed to be easy. This place starts the 33 fastest, best-prepared cars. Obviously, I missed.

The Indy 500 was the defining stage of my career.

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.

Everyone remembers the pole winner for two weeks. Everyone remembers the race winner for life.

What makes IndyCar racing so good is there's not much you can do on your car to differentiate it from the others. It's only dampers, third springs. There's the aero with the aero kits – and hopefully those are going away.

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

I was going through there as hard as I could. It was for everything. It was for all the marbles.

She probably does not know what that is, so I can say I'm going to Las Vegas to play poker and she'll think it's something like that!

...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.
