Heeeeere's something that's amazing... i-dent-ical laps.

Time to go to the back row party!

Antony! Yer losin' 3 seconds a lap! Now get yer foot into it, I'm not gonna tell ya again!!
AJ Foyt, Chicagoland 2004
I'm tired of being nice about it. The fact is, grip created by aerodynamic downforce is our enemy... At the moment, the downforce is so great that it masks the handling and hurts the racing
Rick Mears on what's wrong with IndyCar, Motorsport.com, October 28th 2015
The Indy 500 is the biggest race in the world. I don't think it's even debatable. It is.

Good news is we've won every race we've finished!

Fernando Alonso on what his mother would think about the Indy 500, motor.as.com, April 20th 2016

I'm the happiest guy on earth right now!

Gentlemen... restart your engines!
Tom Carnegie, Indy 2004
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.

We're all back to square zero!
James Hinchcliffe on the start of a new season, Trackside, March 18th 2014
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
I don't want to take a defeatist attitude here but it's going to be ugly. If IndyCar goes the domed skid route, we're going to be taking a knife to a gunfight.
