I'm tired of being nice about it. The fact is, grip created by aerodynamic downforce is our enemy... At the moment, the downforce is so great that it masks the handling and hurts the racing

I think this is something that will really change the complexion of the sport for a long time to come, so this is big

Sam Hornish Jr on Tomas Scheckter, Texas 2005
That was for the team.

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
The last I looked, I earned the label of Indy 500 champion; those lobbing unfounded accusations at me have not.

Finishing in the Top-10 here was because of nutrition.
A Sarah Fisher malapropism, Texas 2007
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.
Dan Wheldon on Iowa Speedway, June 2009
It's always sad to be out of a race but I'm happy that I walked away; it was a nasty, nasty crash.

I think Briscoe and I had a pretty good race going on, but we got what we got.
Scott Dixon on losing the race and the championship, Homestead 2009

F1 is for sissies, this is proper racing, you can quote me on that!
Dan Wheldon
I keep getting asked by Europeans, drivers also, if racing around IMS was boring an' easy. I just want to shake my head and walk away.
Connor Daly, June 6th 2013, via Twitter
The Indy 500 was the defining stage of my career.

Do you think I give a flying f*** what Buddy Rice thinks?

Tom Sneva
I am a connoisseur of information!
Conor Daly on silly season rumours, Trackside, September 13th 2016
Now they've got competition and they are not talking about winning. I feel like they want to sit around and hold hands and sing. I want to win.
Chip Ganassi on Honda, St Petersberg, March 23rd 2013
We are trying to fix them but when you start behind the eight ball like last year you are playing catch-up and you will continue to play catch-up until we get rid of these stupid kits!
Michael Andretti on aerokits, Autosport.com, 15th April 2016
I need a nap now.

Marco Andretti, Kansas 2007
Second place is nothing.
Marco Andretti, Indy 2006
Without the IRL, a lot of guys would never have been able to show what they can do.
Tony Stewart, May 2007
I am stupid.

I've got the Grandfathers Club with Helio and Juan, right?!
Roger Penske on his older two drivers, motorsport.com, March 22nd 2016
This place isn't easy. It's not supposed to be easy. This place starts the 33 fastest, best-prepared cars. Obviously, I missed.
Paul Diatlovitch, Indy Bump Day 2007
She probably does not know what that is, so I can say I'm going to Las Vegas to play poker and she'll think it's something like that!

It's a new... track... record!

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

I'm 38. I'm a legit 38. I don't know how old you are, but I'm legit 38. March 3 1981.

James Hinchcliffe on winning the pole for the 100th Indy 500, May 22nd 2016
I don't want to take a defeatist attitude here but it's going to be ugly. If IndyCar goes the domed skid route, we're going to be taking a knife to a gunfight.

3-horse chase. Power, Dixie and GR

P2 to P8 to P20 to who knows to P2. Confirmed… Portland IS weird.
Alexander Rossi on another wild race at Portland, via Twitter, September 13th 2021
What makes IndyCar racing so good is there's not much you can do on your car to differentiate it from the others. It's only dampers, third springs. There's the aero with the aero kits – and hopefully those are going away.
