This place isn't easy. It's not supposed to be easy. This place starts the 33 fastest, best-prepared cars. Obviously, I missed.
Paul Diatlovitch, Indy Bump Day 2007
I am a connoisseur of information!
Conor Daly on silly season rumours, Trackside, September 13th 2016
I've never been so happy to be in last place.

My Father said if you are going to win one race, make sure it is the Indianapolis 500
Eddie Cheever after winning the Indy 500
I was frustrated since Motegi and wanted to prove a point. When you're in a competitive package, you can't let points slip. I can eat breakfast tomorrow morning now instead of stabbing my fork into the table.
Dan Wheldon, Kansas 2007
Broke a glass at a restaurant. Apologize to the waiter, he looks at me, says "Accidents happen. YOU know what I mean!"
James Hinchcliffe via Twitter, December 17th 2015
Back at the big house next weekend, kids.
Alexander Rossi on the Harvest GP, Twitter.com, 24th September 2020
This has been the best season of my career in motorsport and I've learned so much. We'll be coming back to win this thing next year.
Will Power on losing to Dario Franchitti, Homestead, 2010
What a day. This place is magical. It is still the 'beginning of the season' for me but everything is starting to fall into place. This is the best month of May, ever.
Helio Castroneves after winning the Indy 500, May 2009
I just can't wait to get back in the car. I wonder if I'm still any good.
Will Power on the long off season, St Petersburg, March 21st 2013
I can't believe it. I cannot believe it. What a year for this Target team. It was so much fun to be a part of.

Eyes on the starter...
Tom Carnegie
When you tug at a guy in the pit lane, I think that is taking advantage of your gender, because it puts me in an awkward position.
Dan Wheldon on Danica Patrick, June 2007
We won a 500-mile race - not the right one, but we won a 500-miler...
Will Power on the 2016 season, ESPN.com, September 18th 2016
They're creating a much bigger problem than the one they're trying to solve. And it's mind-boggling, absolutely mind-boggling, that they don't see it and that these discussions have even made it this far.
James Hinchcliffe on INDYCAR mandating domed skids, Motorsport.com, April 5th 2016
When I saw he was slowing down, I have to say it was a relief. I thought, 'Now we can finally unleash the beast inside and go for the win.'
Simon Pagenaud on Will Power's misfortune at Sonoma, ESPN.com, September 18th 2016
Howard and me set the first and third fastest times of the day, and we both got beaten to grid slot 33 by a kid in Methodist Hospital with a smoking wreck of a car. The magic of Indy, huh?
Paul Tracy, Indy Bump Day 2010
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
Patience is a virtue... and someone wasn't very virtuous today.
James Hinchcliffe on an unnamed driver, Long Beach 2014
With photos, sometimes people get old. Not me, but some people do.
Helio Castroneves, June 2009
I promise you this: it isn't the last you've seen of me at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. My last time there will not be a day when I'm walking out with my tail between my legs.
Paul Tracy, Indy Bump Day 2010
Off to heat yoga with @PitFitTraining. Gonna be sweating like a rapist.
Tomas Scheckter showing his class on Twitter, April 6th 2011
If we're not racing hard, we're not racing.
Tony Kanaan, St Pete's 2007
I get one more opportunity to head into the defining racing venue of my career with a single, achievable goal: Win.
Danica Patrick on her final Indy 500, The Players' Tribune, May 15th 2018
Everyone wants to pick a fight with me. Whatever.

Brian Clauson's car got pretty beat up yesterday. It's black and blue all over
Justin Wilson on Brian Clauson's patchwork DW12, bump day, Indy 2012
That was for the team.
Tony Kanaan, Fontana 2005
The walls are white, the track is grey, the grass is green, and the sky is blue... your job is to keep them all where they belong.
Johnny Rutherford's advice to Indy 500 rookies
I can hardly believe it. Who would have thought it?!
Dario Franchitti on winning the 91st Indy 500
Then again my favorite films of all time are Fast and the Furious 1 through 8 or however many of them there are.

Brad Pitt got a super license before me. Tough.
Colton Herta on Brad Pitt joining the F1 grid to film a movie, Twitter, May 4th 2023
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.
Wade Cunningham on Sebastien Saavedra, Iowa 2009
I prefer to be here, even 34th, then being at home like last year.
Fernando Alonso on the Indy 500, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 19th 2019
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
I wish I could get my deadbeat family to participate.
Kurt St. Angelo on the IndyCarFanZone fantasy league, Twitter, September 14th 2022
Hope you're all snug in your beds, while Indycars dance in your head...
Simon Pagenaud on insomnia, Twitter, 4:31 AM, July 23rd 2019
I was going through there as hard as I could. It was for everything. It was for all the marbles.
Sam Hornish Jr, Indy 2006
Well, the elephant in the room is the aero kits.
Marco Andretti on why the Honda teams were struggling, Barber, April 27th 2015
It's a living, breathing, organism.
Eddie Cheever on Indianapolis Motor Speedway
We'll be fine. I'll take them to Six Flags tomorrow and we'll all be fine.
Tony Kanaan on Marco & Danica, June 2009 at Texas Motor Speedway
The last time this flag was on the front row of the Indy500, I wasn’t born. Makes me proud.
Rinus Veekay on the Dutch flag, Twitter.com, May 25th 2021
I can tell you one thing, with 50 to go, I thought we were going to go home and close our tent.
Roger Penske, Indy 2006
I'm just so f***ing disappointed!
Kosuke Matsuura, St Pete's 2007
So it was a bad result but good day. Led laps, good restarts, passed people, worked with the car, but finished crap! movin on!!
Danica Patrick after Iowa 2009, via Twitter
The Indy 500 is the biggest race in the world. I don't think it's even debatable. It is.
Dan Wheldon
I drove it like I stole it!
Helio Castroneves, St Pete's 2006
Someone asked me if I win the Indy 500 if I'd still retire? I'd still retire. What better way to go out?
Danica Patrick on her final race, racing.ap.org, March 7th 2018
Since last fall I've been wondering what in the hell it's going to feel like, and now I know.
Danica Patrick on driving an IndyCar after 7 years away, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 1st 2018
Less than a mile an hour and I'm on pole. It's tough. It's IndyCar. It's why we love it.
Scott McLaughlan on qualifying at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 22nd 2023, via Speed Street
Obviously we always see the good days, but Gil de Ferran told me if you can have a bad day and nobody notices, that's how you do a really good job - and that's how you win a championship.
