Andy Granatelli for as much as he put into the sport, especially at Indianapolis. I had to deal with that big kiss. I can still smell the garlic.

Fernando Alonso on Turn 1 commitment at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 3rd 2017

Dan Wheldon
You need to learn how to f***ing count.

The worst thing about crashing A.J.'s car twice in two days is you still have to go to dinner with him. And he makes you buy, and then he eats your bowl of ice cream, too.
Billy Boat
Brad Pitt got a super license before me. Tough.
Colton Herta on Brad Pitt joining the F1 grid to film a movie, Twitter, May 4th 2023

Robbie Buhl, after winning at WDW in 2000

That was for the team.
