Fernando Alonso on what his mother would think about the Indy 500, motor.as.com, April 20th 2016
Some of the drivers roll out this 'safety' word, and suddenly it ties everybody's hands. But those arguments make no sense anyway. Remove downforce and you actually improve safety

It was a very good test in terms of outright speed, but I did destroy a car the first day.

Then again my favorite films of all time are Fast and the Furious 1 through 8 or however many of them there are.
Conor Daly on underglow. Via Twitter, July 16th 2020

Time to go to the back row party!
Ryan Hunter Reay, Indy 500 Bump Day 2009
The Indy 500 was the defining stage of my career.

James Hinchcliffe on winning the pole for the 100th Indy 500, May 22nd 2016
