It looks so easy when you watch it on TV, but it's not.
Franck Perera on racing ovals, Homestead 2008
Maybe he should start thinking about driving and stop thinking about dancing because that was a stupid move.
Tomas Scheckter on Helio Castroneves, Detroit 2007

I arrived in Turn 1 and I was convinced that I was doing flat out, but the foot was not flat - it had its own life, it was not connected to my brain at that moment.

The only reason I'm wearin' it is so I didn't leave it in no hotel nowhere!

Jay Frye on the Aeroscreen, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, October 2nd 2019
The Indy 500 is one of the greatest events in the sport. Drivers all over the world know this. I belong there. Because I'm a racer.

The wall came too close and too quickly.

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.

Whether you're a fan in turn 1 or turn 4, it doesn't matter what position you have. We all make the Indianapolis 500 what it is.

It's great that it's one minute after six!

Kevin Lee on Jacques Villeneuve, Trackside, August 2012
If they want to be on the front page of USA Today, they can be my guest. If I ever want attention, I'm just going to get out of the car and beat the hell out of somebody.
Tony Kanaan on Dan and Danica, Milwaukee 2007

That was the hairiest day I've ever had.
Ryan Hunter Reay, Indy 500 Bump Day 2009
The minute he got in front of me, he slowed down half-a-second a lap because he knows I'm fighting him for the championship and he was out of the race. It's probably the most unsportsmanlike thing I've ever seen on the racetrack, apart from shunting someone into a wall.

As a past driver, I'd answer the phone if Roger or Chip called...

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.
