I wish Beaux Barfield was officiating when I was driving - I'd have gotten a lot less penalties!
Paul Tracy on lax penalties for avoidable contact, Long Beach 2014
Less than a mile an hour and I'm on pole. It's tough. It's IndyCar. It's why we love it.

Sometimes you're the windshield, and sometimes you're the bug. And sometimes you have an air gun failure.
Simon Pagenaud on equipment issues, St Petersburg, March 11th 2018
...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
I think it's is a long putt, so I think we're safe for a while.

I think this is something that will really change the complexion of the sport for a long time to come, so this is big
Jay Frye on the Aeroscreen, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, October 2nd 2019
Back then there were 50-75 cars just trying to make the field. And they were the best drivers in the world. I remember thinking; I can’t believe this. I can't believe I got a spot.
A.J. Foyt on qualifying for his first Indianapolis 500 mile race
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
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.

Whoever has got the big balls is going to go fast!

Having raced all over the planet, I would say that IndyCar is the toughest beast yet to master for me.

I was just hanging back there waiting for someone to make a mistake and it turned out to be me!
Colton Herta on the final restart, Road America, June 12th 2022
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.
Bobby Rahal on the benefits of a spec series, Racer.com, May 18th 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
He's grounded.
Bryan Herta to Marco Andretti on Colton Herta knocking Marco out of P1 in final practice, Long Beach, April 14th 2019
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
It's a Top-10 but after finishing here fifth last year nothing less than that would really be satisfying because you always want more.
Ed Carpenter after the 2009 Indianapolis 500
And in 7 hours off to NYC!! Can't believe. Don't want to sleep thinking I'm gonna wake up from a dream.
Sebastian Saavedra, Indy Bump Day 2010, via Twitter
Howard and me set the first and third fastest times of the day, and we both got beaten to grid slot 33 by a kid in Methodist Hospital with a smoking wreck of a car. The magic of Indy, huh?

Every podium tastes like glory and every victory more so.

The walls are white, the track is grey, the grass is green, and the sky is blue... your job is to keep them all where they belong.

This is a great decision by IndyCar. Plus it gives me another month to get ready.
Jimmie Johnson on the 2021 season opener being delayed, via Twitter, January 6th 2021
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
I am stupid.

Sam Hornish Jr on Tomas Scheckter, Texas 2005
Not bad for a part timer ;o)

It's a great feeling. I wouldn't trade it for anything else.

We are unified.
Terry Angstadt, February 22nd 2008
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
