It's always sad to be out of a race but I'm happy that I walked away; it was a nasty, nasty crash.

The race that made the IRL famous!

When you've driven it for a day, you're going to feel naked without it.

This is a huge day for the IndyCar Series and for our sport as a whole, for sure.

PJ Chesson on Mothers Day
F1 is for sissies, this is proper racing, you can quote me on that!

Racing IndyCars at Richmond is like flying fighter jets in a gymnasium.

Now it's obvious we were too conservative, we should have just gone for it

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've never been so happy to be in last place.

Heeeeere's something that's amazing... i-dent-ical laps.
Tom Carnegie
Maybe he should start thinking about driving and stop thinking about dancing because that was a stupid move.
Tomas Scheckter on Helio Castroneves, Detroit 2007
Gentlemen... restart your engines!
Tom Carnegie, Indy 2004
Why do you think there are so many skid marks? It's not because it's a lovely corner.

Then again my favorite films of all time are Fast and the Furious 1 through 8 or however many of them there are.

Downforce is the enemy of racing.

When you go home and you're slow, there's nothing you can do. But when you go home under these conditions it's kind of tough.

Patience is a virtue... and someone wasn't very virtuous today.

James Hinchcliffe on the start of a new season, Trackside, March 18th 2014

Will Power on aerokits, motorsport.com, May 4th 2016
Good news is we've won every race we've finished!
James Hinchcliffe on crashing out at Long Beach, April 22nd 2013
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
The day started when I walked into Gasoline Alley and saw the grandstands. It was my first time here on race day and it was quite unbelievable.

If we're not racing hard, we're not racing.

Ryan Hunter-Reay on the dangers of racing an IndyCar, Pocono, August 23rd 2015
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.
Ryan Hunter-Reay on canopies, Racer Magazine, 15 September 2014
It's a Top-10 but after finishing here fifth last year nothing less than that would really be satisfying because you always want more.
Ed Carpenter after the 2009 Indianapolis 500
My Father said if you are going to win one race, make sure it is the Indianapolis 500
