    Dan Wheldon to Chip Ganassi, Nashville 2006

    Will Power on testing the Aeroscreen, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, October 2nd 2019

  • It takes a lot of guts to expose yourself in front of millions of people, in front of all the media, in front of all your peers.

    Jeff Burton on Danica Patrick, June 2010
