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
I was frustrated since Motegi and wanted to prove a point. When you're in a competitive package, you can't let points slip. I can eat breakfast tomorrow morning now instead of stabbing my fork into the table.

Colton Herta on the final restart, Road America, June 12th 2022

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

If you're an open-wheel racer and not at Indy in May, you're not really a race car driver. You just think you are.
Eddie Cheever
I wish Beaux Barfield was officiating when I was driving - I'd have gotten a lot less penalties!

It's a great feeling. I wouldn't trade it for anything else.

Downforce is the enemy of racing.

Maybe he should start thinking about driving and stop thinking about dancing because that was a stupid move.
Tomas Scheckter on Helio Castroneves, Detroit 2007
I kind of have half an idea of what it means to win this race now. I couldn't be happier.

I'm a little rough around the edges like him and I say what I feel, there's no B.S. and that's one of the things I've always admired about him.
Paul Tracy on AJ Foyt, May 2009
This has been the best season of my career in motorsport and I've learned so much. We'll be coming back to win this thing next year.

I WILL win at Kentucky.
