It's just great, pure racing.
Sebastien Bourdais on IndyCar, June 2015

I was going good but then I slipped in my own drool.
Helio Castroneves on the return to road courses

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

If you run around in the back with the squirrels, you're bound to get your nuts cracked.

I think Danica's pretty aggressive in our cars. I mean, you know especially if you catch her at the right time of the month, she might be trading plenty of paint out there!
