Downforce is the enemy of racing.
Rick Mears, Motorsport.com, September 15th 2016

Colton Herta on Brad Pitt joining the F1 grid to film a movie, Twitter, May 4th 2023
If we're racing on Superspeedways with catch fencing, I fear we're just playing the odds until we have something protecting our heads. It’s a scary thing to say.

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.
Fernando Alonso on Turn 1 commitment at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 3rd 2017
