I need a nap now.
Colton Herta on winning his first IndyCar race, COTA, 24th March 2019
Some of the drivers who don't want to do the Indy 500, they just have small balls. I think that's the only explanation.
Mikhail Aleshin on drivers who are too scared to run the Indy 500, May 16th 2017
It's always sad to be out of a race but I'm happy that I walked away; it was a nasty, nasty crash.
Tony Kanaan at the 2009 Indianapolis 500
Racing IndyCars at Richmond is like flying fighter jets in a gymnasium.
Eddie Cheever Jr.
It was a very good test in terms of outright speed, but I did destroy a car the first day.
Dan Wheldon, Homestead test 2007
...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.
Curt Cavin on Trackside, May 13th 2010
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.
TrackSideOnline, May 2009
This is just an excellent race and to be a part of the history, I'm really grateful for that.
Roger Yasukawa, Indy 2007
I think it's is a long putt, so I think we're safe for a while.
Roger Penske on the possibility of F1 returning to Long Beach, April 2014
When you've driven it for a day, you're going to feel naked without it.
Will Power on testing the Aeroscreen, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, October 2nd 2019
It takes a lot of guts to expose yourself in front of millions of people, in front of all the media, in front of all your peers. If somebody came to me and said, "Hey, you want to run Texas in an IRL car," I'd say, "Hell, no. I don't want to get embarrassed." She's doing that. I have a lot of respect for that.
Jeff Burton on Danica Patrick, June 2010
I can't believe it. I cannot believe it. What a year for this Target team. It was so much fun to be a part of.
Dario Franchitti, Homestead 2009
Heeeeeee's on it!
Tom Carnegie
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
Fernando Alonso on the difference between an IndyCar and an F1 car, May 3rd 2017
I'm the happiest guy on earth right now!
Rinus VeeKay on finishing 5th at the IMS Road Course, July 4th 2020
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
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!
Michael Andretti on aerokits, Autosport.com, 15th April 2016
This place isn't easy. It's not supposed to be easy. This place starts the 33 fastest, best-prepared cars. Obviously, I missed.
Paul Diatlovitch, Indy Bump Day 2007
This has been the best season of my career in motorsport and I've learned so much. We'll be coming back to win this thing next year.
Will Power on losing to Dario Franchitti, Homestead, 2010
Wild thought. This 18th Indy 500 means I've been in IndyCar for exactly half of my life. 👀😅
Marco Andretti on getting older, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 18th 2023, via Twitter
3-horse chase. Power, Dixie and GR
Curt Cavin with a new twist on an old saying, GP of Baltimore 2013
I can hardly believe it. Who would have thought it?!
Dario Franchitti on winning the 91st Indy 500
Cheever had a problem with my dad, he had a problem with me, and now he's taking it out on Marco.
Michael Andretti, Watkins Glen 2006
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.
Scott McLaughlin on his Detroit weekend, June15th 2021, Speedcafe.com
It looks so easy when you watch it on TV, but it's not.
Franck Perera on racing ovals, Homestead 2008
This is a huge day for the IndyCar Series and for our sport as a whole, for sure.
Michael Andretti, February 22nd 2008
I am stupid.
Zach Veach on Zach Veach after an off track excursion, IMS, July 4th 2020
Most importantly, for the Indy 500 we'll probably be all okay, and that's cause to be happy.
Mikhail Aleshin on Honda's prospects for the 2017 season, Motorsport.com, February 2nd 2017
I've got the Grandfathers Club with Helio and Juan, right?!
Roger Penske on his older two drivers, motorsport.com, March 22nd 2016
We'll be fine. I'll take them to Six Flags tomorrow and we'll all be fine.
Tony Kanaan on Marco & Danica, June 2009 at Texas Motor Speedway
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
To finish first you must first finish.
Rick Mears
Everyone remembers the pole winner for two weeks. Everyone remembers the race winner for life.
Dan Wheldon on the Indy 500
Some of the drivers roll out this 'safety' word, and suddenly it ties everybody's hands. But those arguments make no sense anyway. Remove downforce and you actually improve safety
Rick Mears on downforce, Motorsport.com, October 28th 2015
I've never been so happy to be in last place.
Ryan Hunter Reay, Indy 500 Bump Day 2009
I just kept focused, focused, focused, all day long, getting every corner perfect.
Helio Castroneves, St Pete's 2007
She's just feeling the pressure of not winning races.
Dan Wheldon on Danica Patrick, Milwaukee 2007
"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
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
She was acting like a spoiled brat. I don't respect that. I tried to step away. She kept grabbing on me like a dog that wanted to bite my ankles.
Dan Wheldon on Danica Patrick, June 2007
Off to heat yoga with @PitFitTraining. Gonna be sweating like a rapist.
Tomas Scheckter showing his class on Twitter, April 6th 2011
I was going good but then I slipped in my own drool.
Helio Castroneves on the return to road courses
Having raced all over the planet, I would say that IndyCar is the toughest beast yet to master for me.
Felix Rosenqvist, Motorsports.com, September 17th 2019
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
With photos, sometimes people get old. Not me, but some people do.
Helio Castroneves, June 2009
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
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
We are unified.
Terry Angstadt, February 22nd 2008
My picture isn't everywhere, but people recognize me. I'm telling you, it's the nose.
Tony Kanaan, May 2007
