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
Gentlemen... restart your engines!
Tom Carnegie, Indy 2004
Time to go to the back row party!
Ryan Hunter Reay, Indy 500 Bump Day 2009
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
I wish Beaux Barfield was officiating when I was driving - I'd have gotten a lot less penalties!

It's the biggest race in the world. It's not supposed to be easy.
Marcus Ericsson on The Indianapolis 500, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 2023

I lifted a little, but I didn't touch the brake.

Why do you think there are so many skid marks? It's not because it's a lovely corner.
John Andretti, Indy 2010
It's like a reunion to come back here every May. I've never retired. I always say, "I'm not done yet."
Parnelli Jones, Indy 2007
When Will was going off on Versus, I was cracking up. I was like, man, I didn't know you could talk like that! And I never knew you could say 'wanker' on TV, but that's my new word for now on... so I guess something good did come out of Toronto!
Tony Kanaan on Will Power, Toronto, July 2011
You've only seen me smile here.

"Many people always ask me why I sign off 'Until we meet again.' Because goodbye is so final. Goodbye, Dan Wheldon."
Marty Reid, Las Vegas, October 16th 2011
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.

To finish first you must first finish.

At 220mph friendship, risk and victory become extremely volatile.

A happy wife is a happy life!

The only reason I'm wearin' it is so I didn't leave it in no hotel nowhere!

James Hinchcliffe on INDYCAR mandating domed skids, Motorsport.com, April 5th 2016
I was a craft beer and a wallet chain away from being a hipster!

Last season, we lost the championship in the last corner of the last lap of the last race to some other guy.
Chip Ganassi, Daytona 2008

I plan to be here hopefully until I'm into my 40s, and to accomplish something like Scott has done.

Will Power on the long off season, St Petersburg, March 21st 2013
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
It's amazing how different an Indycar is from anything else on a racetrack.
Alexander Rossi, Autosport.com, April 26th 2017
I'm a little rough around the edges like him and I say what I feel, there's no B.S. and that's one of the things I've always admired about him.

Everyone wants to pick a fight with me. Whatever.

Finishing in the Top-10 here was because of nutrition.
A Sarah Fisher malapropism, Texas 2007
I love this championship and everything it represents. I feel very fortunate to have the opportunity to be here. I wouldn't want to have it any other way.
Alexander Rossi on IndyCar, The Indy Star, September 14th 2018
If we're not racing hard, we're not racing.

If someone said choose one race to win, just one, and that was the only race you ever got to win, it would be the Indy 500.
