Alexander Rossi on IndyCar, The Indy Star, September 14th 2018
Whatever you heard, somebody made it up. For the first two days, he talked nonsense because he had a concussion. It doesn't matter what he was saying. He doesn't even remember it.
Tony Kanaan on the rumours of Dario Franchitti's retirement after Houston, 2013
Some people strap on their helmet and lose their brains.

We are trying to fix them but when you start behind the eight ball like last year you are playing catch-up and you will continue to play catch-up until we get rid of these stupid kits!

I was going good but then I slipped in my own drool.

We're all back to square zero!
James Hinchcliffe on the start of a new season, Trackside, March 18th 2014
Howard and me set the first and third fastest times of the day, and we both got beaten to grid slot 33 by a kid in Methodist Hospital with a smoking wreck of a car. The magic of Indy, huh?

We'll be fine. I'll take them to Six Flags tomorrow and we'll all be fine.

Finishing in the Top-10 here was because of nutrition.

Ryan Hunter-Reay on the dangers of racing an IndyCar, Pocono, August 23rd 2015
The track is narrower than I thought! You watch the television and you see three cars alongside on the main straight - now I am in the car on the main straight and it's hard to imagine how you can fit three cars there at speed.
Fernando Alonso after his first test at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 3rd 2017
Hope you're all snug in your beds, while Indycars dance in your head...

I miss my fans so much, you have no idea. I think I appreciate them more then I ever did.

I mean this guy can't even keep his lies straight. He's told so many in the last week, he's not sure what the truth is.

You're not going to out-Dixon Dixon!
James Hinchcliffe on trying to beat Scott Dixon on fuel mileage, during the Bommarito Automative 500, August 27th 2023
...one of the things that has always been wrong with that theory that NASCAR is the enemy... and they are... is because the people at NASCAR need to protect NASCAR.

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
Andy Granatelli for as much as he put into the sport, especially at Indianapolis. I had to deal with that big kiss. I can still smell the garlic.

I am stupid.
Zach Veach on Zach Veach after an off track excursion, IMS, July 4th 2020
