Sebastien Bourdais on the flip side of the Coyne, NBCSports.com, November 22nd 2019

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

Scott Dixon on losing the race and the championship, Homestead 2009
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.
