I lifted a little, but I didn't touch the brake.

Will he get through? Where is he? Where is he? There he is!

Broke a glass at a restaurant. Apologize to the waiter, he looks at me, says "Accidents happen. YOU know what I mean!"

James Hinchcliffe via Twitter, December 17th 2015

I kind of have half an idea of what it means to win this race now. I couldn't be happier.

That was the hairiest day I've ever had.

Ryan Hunter Reay, Indy 500 Bump Day 2009

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
