If he wins this race with what he has to work with, they ought to name this place after him.

It's a great feeling. I wouldn't trade it for anything else.

Maybe he should start thinking about driving and stop thinking about dancing because that was a stupid move.

I'm throwing this one out to Dan. This is his hometown, this is his car.

"Many people always ask me why I sign off 'Until we meet again.' Because goodbye is so final. Goodbye, Dan Wheldon."

You're not going to out-Dixon Dixon!

Simon Pagenaud on equipment issues, St Petersburg, March 11th 2018

Sam Hornish Jr on Tomas Scheckter, Texas 2005
The worst thing about crashing A.J.'s car twice in two days is you still have to go to dinner with him. And he makes you buy, and then he eats your bowl of ice cream, too.
Billy Boat
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.

The Indianapolis 500 is about the fastest 33 Indy car drivers going for one prize. If they happen to come from America, that's great.

I just kept focused, focused, focused, all day long, getting every corner perfect.
Helio Castroneves, St Pete's 2007
Everyone thinks that running in dirty air causes the front end to wash out, but actually it affects the whole car and you just can't follow someone close in fast or medium-speed corners since the aerokits came in.
