I WILL win at Kentucky.
Will Power, Chicago 2010

I just kept focused, focused, focused, all day long, getting every corner perfect.

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

You don't pay me to run second.

This place isn't easy. It's not supposed to be easy. This place starts the 33 fastest, best-prepared cars. Obviously, I missed.

I have learned more in one week here than I did in my entire Formula One career.

I'm throwing this one out to Dan. This is his hometown, this is his car.

You don't get too many times like that at the Indy 500 where you're out there and you have a chance to win the race right in front of everybody on the last lap.
Sam Hornish Jr, Indy 2006
It's like a reunion to come back here every May. I've never retired. I always say, "I'm not done yet."

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.

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

It's just crazy. If I never won another pole, I wouldn't care. Almost.
James Hinchcliffe on winning the pole for the 100th Indy 500, May 22nd 2016
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!

I'm 38. I'm a legit 38. I don't know how old you are, but I'm legit 38. March 3 1981.
