    Fernando Alonso on what his mother would think about the Indy 500, motor.as.com, April 20th 2016

    Helio Castroneves, St Pete's 2006

  • The minute he got in front of me, he slowed down half-a-second a lap because he knows I'm fighting him for the championship and he was out of the race. It's probably the most unsportsmanlike thing I've ever seen on the racetrack, apart from shunting someone into a wall.

  • I need a nap now.

    Colton Herta on winning his first IndyCar race, COTA, 24th March 2019
