No way. That's the best part about our cars, no power steering, high aero, get it done.

Justin Wilson on Brian Clauson's patchwork DW12, bump day, Indy 2012

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.

It's just crazy. If I never won another pole, I wouldn't care. Almost.

Without the IRL, a lot of guys would never have been able to show what they can do.

This is just an excellent race and to be a part of the history, I'm really grateful for that.

Graham Rahal on winning at Mid-Ohio, Instagram, August 3rd 2015

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.
