The Indy 500 is the biggest race in the world. I don't think it's even debatable. It is.

This is a huge day for the IndyCar Series and for our sport as a whole, for sure.

I know a lot of people say that Iowa is in the middle of nowhere, but you know what, we get such a great crowd and they're so enthusiastic. As a driver you could put me in paradise, but if there's nobody in the grandstands then it's not good racing.

This track, believe it or not, has done worse to me in the past, and we came back swinging.

Jimmie Johnson on the 2021 season opener being delayed, via Twitter, January 6th 2021
When Will was going off on Versus, I was cracking up. I was like, man, I didn't know you could talk like that! And I never knew you could say 'wanker' on TV, but that's my new word for now on... so I guess something good did come out of Toronto!
Tony Kanaan on Will Power, Toronto, July 2011
I get one more opportunity to head into the defining racing venue of my career with a single, achievable goal: Win.
Danica Patrick on her final Indy 500, The Players' Tribune, May 15th 2018

Beautiful chaos!
David Malukas on the racing at Texas Motor Speedway, April 2nd 2023
Howard and me set the first and third fastest times of the day, and we both got beaten to grid slot 33 by a kid in Methodist Hospital with a smoking wreck of a car. The magic of Indy, huh?
Paul Tracy, Indy Bump Day 2010
I kind of have half an idea of what it means to win this race now. I couldn't be happier.
