Romain Grosjean on his rookie season, Laguna Seca, September 19th 2021
We'd love to see Buddy Rice in a car and in the Indy 500, but as best we can tell, no driver has ever qualified for the Indy 500 from their couch.
TrackSideOnline, May 2009
It's just great, pure racing.
Sebastien Bourdais on IndyCar, June 2015
The race that made the IRL famous!

I'm the happiest guy on earth right now!

Whoever has got the big balls is going to go fast!
Helio Castroneves
I'm a moving chicane out here!
Juan Pablo Montoya, lap 42 at St Pete's, March 30th 2014
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
It's a new... track... record!
Tom Carnegie
Fernando Alonso on the difference between an IndyCar and an F1 car, May 3rd 2017
If you're an open-wheel racer and not at Indy in May, you're not really a race car driver. You just think you are.

Hope you're all snug in your beds, while Indycars dance in your head...

It's great that it's one minute after six!

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
Will he get through? Where is he? Where is he? There he is!
Tom Carnegie on A.J. Foyt, 1967
Downforce is the enemy of racing.
Rick Mears, Motorsport.com, September 15th 2016
I think it's is a long putt, so I think we're safe for a while.
Roger Penske on the possibility of F1 returning to Long Beach, April 2014
I think Danica's pretty aggressive in our cars. I mean, you know especially if you catch her at the right time of the month, she might be trading plenty of paint out there!
Ed Carpenter, July 2006
That's a cool shot of the glowing brake disc!
Colton Herta watching a replay of his pass on Rossi, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, 3rd October 2020

Eddie Cheever Jr.
Well, the elephant in the room is the aero kits.
Marco Andretti on why the Honda teams were struggling, Barber, April 27th 2015
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
That's a good way to lose a championship.
Tony Kanaan, Kansas 2007
As a past driver, I'd answer the phone if Roger or Chip called...

The last time this flag was on the front row of the Indy500, I wasn’t born. Makes me proud.

Good morning from the start/finish line at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
Tom Carnegie
That was the hairiest day I've ever had.
Ryan Hunter Reay, Indy 500 Bump Day 2009
You've only seen me smile here.
Romain Grosjean on being in IndyCar, after the GMR Grand Prix, IMS, May 15th 2021
Again, I was scared to death. I had zero grip, and I was lifting at the start/finish line going into one. It's embarrassing.
Marco Andretti, Kansas 2007
I am stupid.
Zach Veach on Zach Veach after an off track excursion, IMS, July 4th 2020
If he wins this race with what he has to work with, they ought to name this place after him.

Paul Diatlovitch, Indy Bump Day 2007
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
At 220mph friendship, risk and victory become extremely volatile.
Dan Wheldon
Gentlemen, start your engines.
Wilbur Shaw
She probably does not know what that is, so I can say I'm going to Las Vegas to play poker and she'll think it's something like that!
