    Dan Wheldon on Danica Patrick, June 2007

    Rick Mears, Motorsport.com, September 15th 2016

  • Everyone thinks that running in dirty air causes the front end to wash out, but actually it affects the whole car and you just can't follow someone close in fast or medium-speed corners since the aerokits came in.

    Will Power on aerokits, Motorsport.com, May 4th 2016

    Connor Daly, June 6th 2013, via Twitter
