  • Obviously we always see the good days, but Gil de Ferran told me if you can have a bad day and nobody notices, that's how you do a really good job - and that's how you win a championship.

    Simon Pagenaud on the 2016 season, ESPN.com, September 18th 2016

    Mikhail Aleshin on Honda's prospects for the 2017 season, Motorsport.com, February 2nd 2017
