It's a Top-10 but after finishing here fifth last year nothing less than that would really be satisfying because you always want more.

Beautiful chaos!
David Malukas on the racing at Texas Motor Speedway, April 2nd 2023

The things that play on your mind the most are the ones that just got away.

Josef Newgarden on The Indy 500, June 2023, via Twitter
The last I looked, I earned the label of Indy 500 champion; those lobbing unfounded accusations at me have not.
Eddie Cheever Jr. after Watkins Glen 06
And here comes Max Crappis into the pits!
Paul Page, Michigan '99
The minute he got in front of me, he slowed down half-a-second a lap because he knows I'm fighting him for the championship and he was out of the race. It's probably the most unsportsmanlike thing I've ever seen on the racetrack, apart from shunting someone into a wall.
Wade Cunningham on Sebastien Saavedra, Iowa 2009
I sometimes think that Graham doesn't have the right filter for this Sport!
Curt Cavin on Graham Rahal speaking his mind, Traxkaide, May 23rd 2023

Dario Franchitti, Homestead 2009
We'll see how it unfolds, and we're going to have to give each other respect and the space on the track.
Danica Patrick on Dan Wheldon, June 2007
"Many people always ask me why I sign off 'Until we meet again.' Because goodbye is so final. Goodbye, Dan Wheldon."

I WILL win at Kentucky.

Connor Daly, June 6th 2013, via Twitter
Will he get through? Where is he? Where is he? There he is!

Gentlemen... restart your engines!
Tom Carnegie, Indy 2004
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.
Sam Schmidt on Chevy's advantage with domed skids, Racer.com, April 7th 2016
For a moment, all is right with the world - Danica Patrick is leading the Indianapolis 500.

You don't gotta win by five seconds - you just gotta win.
Tony Kanaan, Motegi 2007
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
It was talent and skill, that's how I did it. A masterful display of driving ability!

I think Danica's pretty aggressive in our cars. I mean, you know especially if you catch her at the right time of the month, she might be trading plenty of paint out there!
Ed Carpenter, July 2006
The only reason I'm wearin' it is so I didn't leave it in no hotel nowhere!
