When you go home and you're slow, there's nothing you can do. But when you go home under these conditions it's kind of tough.

Dan Wheldon, Kansas 2007
For a moment, all is right with the world - Danica Patrick is leading the Indianapolis 500.

Off to heat yoga with @PitFitTraining. Gonna be sweating like a rapist.
Tomas Scheckter showing his class on Twitter, April 6th 2011

Chip Ganassi on whether he'd allow Jaun Pablo Montoya to test for Penske, Houston, October 2013
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.

I can hardly believe it. Who would have thought it?!
Dario Franchitti on winning the 91st Indy 500

Finishing in the Top-10 here was because of nutrition.
