Rinus VeeKay on finishing 5th at the IMS Road Course, July 4th 2020

When Will was going off on Versus, I was cracking up. I was like, man, I didn't know you could talk like that! And I never knew you could say 'wanker' on TV, but that's my new word for now on... so I guess something good did come out of Toronto!

Ryan Hunter-Reay on canopies, Racer Magazine, 15 September 2014
