I was a craft beer and a wallet chain away from being a hipster!
James Hinchcliffe on beard growth, Tim and Sid's Plays of the Week, September 14th 2015
The only reason I'm wearin' it is so I didn't leave it in no hotel nowhere!
A.J. Foyt on his Indy 500 winner's ring, Detroit, June 3rd 2016
Back then there were 50-75 cars just trying to make the field. And they were the best drivers in the world. I remember thinking; I can’t believe this. I can't believe I got a spot.
A.J. Foyt on qualifying for his first Indianapolis 500 mile race
Rick Mears is a great race car driver. Hopefully I have plenty of years to try to earn his respect again.
Tony Kanaan, Detroit 2007
P2 to P8 to P20 to who knows to P2. Confirmed… Portland IS weird.
Alexander Rossi on another wild race at Portland, via Twitter, September 13th 2021

Simon Pagenaud on the 2016 season, ESPN.com, September 18th 2016
It's going to be a close finish. I have the bigger nose, I guess I have a good chance.

Good morning from the start/finish line at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
Tom Carnegie
The wall came too close and too quickly.

Graham Rahal on winning at Mid-Ohio, Instagram, August 3rd 2015
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
Less than a mile an hour and I'm on pole. It's tough. It's IndyCar. It's why we love it.

Fernando Alonso on The Indy 500, The Players Tribune, May 18th 2017
We are unified.
Terry Angstadt, February 22nd 2008
What makes IndyCar racing so good is there's not much you can do on your car to differentiate it from the others. It's only dampers, third springs. There's the aero with the aero kits – and hopefully those are going away.
Bobby Rahal on the benefits of a spec series, Racer.com, May 18th 2016
I just kept focused, focused, focused, all day long, getting every corner perfect.

Marco Andretti, Kansas 2007
You don't pay me to run second.
Dan Wheldon to Chip Ganassi, Nashville 2006
I just can't wait to get back in the car. I wonder if I'm still any good.

I told him I'd follow him anywhere he went, as long as it was on the racetrack.
Sam Hornish Jr on Tomas Scheckter, Texas 2005
I've seen this place be absolutely great to me, and I've seen it wrench my heart from my body.

Every podium tastes like glory and every victory more so.

I'm 38. I'm a legit 38. I don't know how old you are, but I'm legit 38. March 3 1981.
Ed Carpenter to Tony Kanaan on the suggestion that he was over 40, Gateway, August 24th 2019
Going into Texas with four wheels on the car is pretty exciting!

If you run around in the back with the squirrels, you're bound to get your nuts cracked.
PJ Chesson
All up it was one of the toughest weekends of my career in ANY form of motorsport, and you can sometimes learn more from your roughest days out there.

Will Power on the 2016 season, ESPN.com, September 18th 2016
Everyone thinks that running in dirty air causes the front end to wash out, but actually it affects the whole car and you just can't follow someone close in fast or medium-speed corners since the aerokits came in.
Will Power on aerokits, Motorsport.com, May 4th 2016
I get one more opportunity to head into the defining racing venue of my career with a single, achievable goal: Win.

Well, the elephant in the room is the aero kits.
Marco Andretti on why the Honda teams were struggling, Barber, April 27th 2015
This place isn't easy. It's not supposed to be easy. This place starts the 33 fastest, best-prepared cars. Obviously, I missed.

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
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.

Off to heat yoga with @PitFitTraining. Gonna be sweating like a rapist.
