Simon Pagenaud on insomnia, Twitter, 4:31 AM, July 23rd 2019
Again, I was scared to death. I had zero grip, and I was lifting at the start/finish line going into one. It's embarrassing.

Any time I get to come to Indianapolis, any time I get to participate in the greatest spectacle in motor racing, it's a great day.
Paul Diatlovitch, Indy Bump Day 2007
It's just great, pure racing.
Sebastien Bourdais on IndyCar, June 2015
If he wins this race with what he has to work with, they ought to name this place after him.

Sam Hornish Jr on Tomas Scheckter, Texas 2005
There comes a time in a race where money doesn't matter, living doesn't matter. Winning is the only thing that matters, and so when you go into those corners, it's winning that tells all.
Al Unser Jr.
I plan to be here hopefully until I'm into my 40s, and to accomplish something like Scott has done.

Racing IndyCars at Richmond is like flying fighter jets in a gymnasium.

P2 to P8 to P20 to who knows to P2. Confirmed… Portland IS weird.

If we're not racing hard, we're not racing.
Tony Kanaan, St Pete's 2007
I hope all the fans out there were as excited about that race as I am. It was awesome doing so much passing. Racing can't get any better!

Antony! Yer losin' 3 seconds a lap! Now get yer foot into it, I'm not gonna tell ya again!!

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
Fernando Alonso on the difference between an IndyCar and an F1 car, May 3rd 2017

It's a new... track... record!

Will Power on aerokits, motorsport.com, May 4th 2016
Do you still remember how to celebrate these things?!

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

It's a great feeling. I wouldn't trade it for anything else.
Sam Hornish Jr. on winning the 90th Indy 500
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?

When you've driven it for a day, you're going to feel naked without it.

Helio Castroneves, St Pete's 2007
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.
Johnny Rutherford's advice to Indy 500 rookies
It's always sad to be out of a race but I'm happy that I walked away; it was a nasty, nasty crash.
