I bet you'd love to drive one, you just wouldn't want to crash one!

Broke a glass at a restaurant. Apologize to the waiter, he looks at me, says "Accidents happen. YOU know what I mean!"

Good news is we've won every race we've finished!
James Hinchcliffe on crashing out at Long Beach, April 22nd 2013
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.

I drove the best race of my whole career!

I think Briscoe and I had a pretty good race going on, but we got what we got.

Having raced all over the planet, I would say that IndyCar is the toughest beast yet to master for me.

I prefer to be here, even 34th, then being at home like last year.
Fernando Alonso on the Indy 500, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 19th 2019
He said its the best team out there. If its the best team, he shouldn't have a problem.

That was the hairiest day I've ever had.

It's just great, pure racing.
Sebastien Bourdais on IndyCar, June 2015
The last I looked, I earned the label of Indy 500 champion; those lobbing unfounded accusations at me have not.

Speed on ovals is insane. Currently re-calibrating my eyes.

The only reason I'm wearin' it is so I didn't leave it in no hotel nowhere!
A.J. Foyt on his Indy 500 winner's ring, Detroit, June 3rd 2016
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
Any time I get to come to Indianapolis, any time I get to participate in the greatest spectacle in motor racing, it's a great day.
Paul Diatlovitch, Indy Bump Day 2007
I mean this guy can't even keep his lies straight. He's told so many in the last week, he's not sure what the truth is.
Robin Miller on Kevin Kalkoven, February 2008
I told him I'd follow him anywhere he went, as long as it was on the racetrack.

If we're not racing hard, we're not racing.

I wish I could get my deadbeat family to participate.

Since last fall I've been wondering what in the hell it's going to feel like, and now I know.

...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.

Simon Pagenaud on Will Power's misfortune at Sonoma, ESPN.com, September 18th 2016
Whatever you heard, somebody made it up. For the first two days, he talked nonsense because he had a concussion. It doesn't matter what he was saying. He doesn't even remember it.
Tony Kanaan on the rumours of Dario Franchitti's retirement after Houston, 2013
If he wins this race with what he has to work with, they ought to name this place after him.
