Terry Angstadt, February 22nd 2008
The Indianapolis 500 is about the fastest 33 Indy car drivers going for one prize. If they happen to come from America, that's great.
Tony Stewart, May 2007
Downforce is the enemy of racing.
Rick Mears, Motorsport.com, September 15th 2016

Marco Andretti, Kansas 2007
Every podium tastes like glory and every victory more so.

Let's wait and watch.
Tom Carnegie
What makes IndyCar racing so good is there's not much you can do on your car to differentiate it from the others. It's only dampers, third springs. There's the aero with the aero kits – and hopefully those are going away.
Bobby Rahal on the benefits of a spec series, Racer.com, May 18th 2016
I wish I could get my deadbeat family to participate.
Kurt St. Angelo on the IndyCarFanZone fantasy league, Twitter, September 14th 2022
This is a huge day for the IndyCar Series and for our sport as a whole, for sure.

Ed Carpenter to Tony Kanaan on the suggestion that he was over 40, Gateway, August 24th 2019
Some of the drivers who don't want to do the Indy 500, they just have small balls. I think that's the only explanation.
Mikhail Aleshin on drivers who are too scared to run the Indy 500, May 16th 2017
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
You know, if you're going to have an example of how not to go about things, this is 100 percent how you would do it.

It looks so easy when you watch it on TV, but it's not.

Why do you think there are so many skid marks? It's not because it's a lovely corner.
John Andretti, Indy 2010
Heeeeere's something that's amazing... i-dent-ical laps.
Tom Carnegie
I'm a moving chicane out here!
Juan Pablo Montoya, lap 42 at St Pete's, March 30th 2014
It's going to be a close finish. I have the bigger nose, I guess I have a good chance.
Tony Kanaan, Kansas 2005
I'm tired of being nice about it. The fact is, grip created by aerodynamic downforce is our enemy... At the moment, the downforce is so great that it masks the handling and hurts the racing
Rick Mears on what's wrong with IndyCar, Motorsport.com, October 28th 2015
This place isn't easy. It's not supposed to be easy. This place starts the 33 fastest, best-prepared cars. Obviously, I missed.

Now they've got competition and they are not talking about winning. I feel like they want to sit around and hold hands and sing. I want to win.
Chip Ganassi on Honda, St Petersberg, March 23rd 2013
NASCAR has nothing on us. Look at the crowd at Indy – that's three Daytona 500s all in one place.
Graham Rahal on the Indianapolis 500, Racer.com, June 4th 2016
I mean this guy can't even keep his lies straight. He's told so many in the last week, he's not sure what the truth is.

This track, believe it or not, has done worse to me in the past, and we came back swinging.

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.
I just kept focused, focused, focused, all day long, getting every corner perfect.
Helio Castroneves, St Pete's 2007

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