Let's wait and watch.
Tom Carnegie
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
Last season, we lost the championship in the last corner of the last lap of the last race to some other guy.

Everyone thinks that running in dirty air causes the front end to wash out, but actually it affects the whole car and you just can't follow someone close in fast or medium-speed corners since the aerokits came in.
Will Power on aerokits, Motorsport.com, May 4th 2016

Andy Granatelli for as much as he put into the sport, especially at Indianapolis. I had to deal with that big kiss. I can still smell the garlic.

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
To finish first you must first finish.
