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
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 was the hairiest day I've ever had.
Ryan Hunter Reay, Indy 500 Bump Day 2009
Downforce is the enemy of racing.
Rick Mears, Motorsport.com, September 15th 2016

The wall came too close and too quickly.

Scott Dixon on Alex Palou's contract dispute, Toronto, July 15th 2022
NASCAR has nothing on us. Look at the crowd at Indy – that's three Daytona 500s all in one place.
Graham Rahal on the Indianapolis 500, Racer.com, June 4th 2016
Pounding down toward the yard of bricks...

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
Racing IndyCars at Richmond is like flying fighter jets in a gymnasium.
Eddie Cheever Jr.
The Indy 500 is the biggest race in the world. I don't think it's even debatable. It is.

You don't get too many times like that at the Indy 500 where you're out there and you have a chance to win the race right in front of everybody on the last lap.

I'm a moving chicane out here!

Helio lives for this. This is his passion. He loves Indy.

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.
Jack Harvey on the Indianapolis 500, indianapolismotorspeedway.com, February 21st 2019
Heeeeere's something that's amazing... i-dent-ical laps.
Tom Carnegie
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.

I was going through there as hard as I could. It was for everything. It was for all the marbles.

Everyone wants to pick a fight with me. Whatever.

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.
