If he wins this race with what he has to work with, they ought to name this place after him.

Brian Clauson's car got pretty beat up yesterday. It's black and blue all over

I can hardly believe it. Who would have thought it?!
Dario Franchitti on winning the 91st Indy 500
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.

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

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

P2 to P8 to P20 to who knows to P2. Confirmed… Portland IS weird.
