Do you think I give a flying f*** what Buddy Rice thinks?
Dan Wheldon
Obviously we always see the good days, but Gil de Ferran told me if you can have a bad day and nobody notices, that's how you do a really good job - and that's how you win a championship.
Simon Pagenaud on the 2016 season, ESPN.com, September 18th 2016
My picture isn't everywhere, but people recognize me. I'm telling you, it's the nose.

I'm 38. I'm a legit 38. I don't know how old you are, but I'm legit 38. March 3 1981.

It's a great feeling. I wouldn't trade it for anything else.

You don't pay me to run second.
Dan Wheldon to Chip Ganassi, Nashville 2006
There comes a time in a race where money doesn't matter, living doesn't matter. Winning is the only thing that matters, and so when you go into those corners, it's winning that tells all.

I've got the Grandfathers Club with Helio and Juan, right?!

I am stupid.
Zach Veach on Zach Veach after an off track excursion, IMS, July 4th 2020
Again, I was scared to death. I had zero grip, and I was lifting at the start/finish line going into one. It's embarrassing.
Marco Andretti, Kansas 2007
This is a great decision by IndyCar. Plus it gives me another month to get ready.
Jimmie Johnson on the 2021 season opener being delayed, via Twitter, January 6th 2021
The toughest people out there passing me are my teammates, and I don't get that. I think three of the four of us get what the camaraderie of Andretti Green Racing is.
Marco Andretti on an unidentified teammate after Milwaukee 2009
Downforce is the enemy of racing.

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

Less than a mile an hour and I'm on pole. It's tough. It's IndyCar. It's why we love it.
Scott McLaughlan on qualifying at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 22nd 2023, via Speed Street
That was for the team.

When you tug at a guy in the pit lane, I think that is taking advantage of your gender, because it puts me in an awkward position.
Dan Wheldon on Danica Patrick, June 2007
With photos, sometimes people get old. Not me, but some people do.
