We'll see how it unfolds, and we're going to have to give each other respect and the space on the track.

Paul Tracy on lax penalties for avoidable contact, Long Beach 2014
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.

Fernando Alonso on Turn 1 commitment at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 3rd 2017
If we're racing on Superspeedways with catch fencing, I fear we're just playing the odds until we have something protecting our heads. It’s a scary thing to say.
Ryan Hunter-Reay on canopies, Racer Magazine, 15 September 2014
You don't pay me to run second.

Ed Carpenter after the 2009 Indianapolis 500
If he wins this race with what he has to work with, they ought to name this place after him.

I've never been so happy to be in last place.
Ryan Hunter Reay, Indy 500 Bump Day 2009

When Will was going off on Versus, I was cracking up. I was like, man, I didn't know you could talk like that! And I never knew you could say 'wanker' on TV, but that's my new word for now on... so I guess something good did come out of Toronto!
