That's a good way to lose a championship.
Tony Kanaan, Kansas 2007

Will Power on aerokits, Motorsport.com, May 4th 2016
Going into Texas with four wheels on the car is pretty exciting!

The last time this flag was on the front row of the Indy500, I wasn’t born. Makes me proud.
Rinus Veekay on the Dutch flag, Twitter.com, May 25th 2021
When Will was going off on Versus, I was cracking up. I was like, man, I didn't know you could talk like that! And I never knew you could say 'wanker' on TV, but that's my new word for now on... so I guess something good did come out of Toronto!
Tony Kanaan on Will Power, Toronto, July 2011
I was going through there as hard as I could. It was for everything. It was for all the marbles.

I wish Beaux Barfield was officiating when I was driving - I'd have gotten a lot less penalties!

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

I can't believe I'm here. It's so cool!

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.

It's amazing how different an Indycar is from anything else on a racetrack.

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.
