• 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.

    Wade Cunningham on Sebastien Saavedra, Iowa 2009

  • Some people strap on their helmet and lose their brains.

    Tom Carnegie

  • 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.

  • This is a huge day for the IndyCar Series and for our sport as a whole, for sure.

    Danica Patrick on Dan Wheldon, June 2007

  • Milka, if you're gonna go that slow you gotta drive your mirrors, hon'!

    Ryan Hunter-Reay to Milka Duno after Watkins Glen qualifying, July 2010

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

    Dario Franchitti, Homestead 2009

    Chip Ganassi on Honda, St Petersberg, March 23rd 2013

    Tony Kanaan, Kansas 2005

  • You don't gotta win by five seconds - you just gotta win.

    Tony Kanaan, Motegi 2007

    Fernando Alonso on Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 3rd 2017

  • The track is narrower than I thought! You watch the television and you see three cars alongside on the main straight - now I am in the car on the main straight and it's hard to imagine how you can fit three cars there at speed.

    Fernando Alonso after his first test at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 3rd 2017

  • James Hinchcliffe on bumping at Indy, May 19th 2018

    A.J. Foyt on qualifying for his first Indianapolis 500 mile race

    Ryan Hunter Reay, Indy 500 Bump Day 2009

    A Sarah Fisher malapropism, Texas 2007

    Alex Tagliani, Indy 500 Bump Day 2009

  • It takes a lot of guts to expose yourself in front of millions of people, in front of all the media, in front of all your peers. If somebody came to me and said, "Hey, you want to run Texas in an IRL car," I'd say, "Hell, no. I don't want to get embarrassed." She's doing that. I have a lot of respect for that.

  • Who is the buff guy in blue with the big #Schnozolla?

    Chip Ganassi on Tony Kanaan's Family Feud appearance, via Twitter, July 26th 2016
