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
F1 is for sissies, this is proper racing, you can quote me on that!

The wall came too close and too quickly.

You won't believe it!

Heeeeere's something that's amazing... i-dent-ical laps.
Tom Carnegie
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
You don't pay me to run second.
Dan Wheldon to Chip Ganassi, Nashville 2006
Whoever has got the big balls is going to go fast!
Helio Castroneves
That's a good way to lose a championship.

You don't gotta win by five seconds - you just gotta win.

This is and always will be the greatest spectacle in racing. This is the Indianapolis 500.

I didn't leave. I was terminated.
Sebastien Bourdais on the flip side of the Coyne, NBCSports.com, November 22nd 2019
We'd love to see Buddy Rice in a car and in the Indy 500, but as best we can tell, no driver has ever qualified for the Indy 500 from their couch.
TrackSideOnline, May 2009
From now on, Scheckter, when used as a verb, means, "To steal one's wireless internet access."
Tony Kanaan's blog, May 2007
I drove it like I stole it!

Tom Carnegie on A.J. Foyt, 1967
It's the biggest race in the world. It's not supposed to be easy.
Marcus Ericsson on The Indianapolis 500, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 2023
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.
Bobby Rahal on the benefits of a spec series, Racer.com, May 18th 2016
I bet you'd love to drive one, you just wouldn't want to crash one!

At 220mph friendship, risk and victory become extremely volatile.
Dan Wheldon
The toughest people out there passing me are my teammates, and I don't get that. I think three of the four of us get what the camaraderie of Andretti Green Racing is.
Marco Andretti on an unidentified teammate after Milwaukee 2009
I wasn't thinking, 'That's Eddie [Cheever] and he's in an Infiniti and so I need to beat him.' I was thinking, 'That's Eddie, and I want to kick his ass!'
Robbie Buhl, after winning at WDW in 2000
Some of the drivers roll out this 'safety' word, and suddenly it ties everybody's hands. But those arguments make no sense anyway. Remove downforce and you actually improve safety
Rick Mears on downforce, Motorsport.com, October 28th 2015
It takes a lot of guts to expose yourself in front of millions of people, in front of all the media, in front of all your peers. If somebody came to me and said, "Hey, you want to run Texas in an IRL car," I'd say, "Hell, no. I don't want to get embarrassed." She's doing that. I have a lot of respect for that.
Jeff Burton on Danica Patrick, June 2010
If I ever pit with her again, I'm not racing for this team anymore - ever!
Tony Kanaan, Kansas 2007
He's grounded.

Tony Kanaan, Detroit 2007
There comes a time in a race where money doesn't matter, living doesn't matter. Winning is the only thing that matters, and so when you go into those corners, it's winning that tells all.
Al Unser Jr.
If we're not racing hard, we're not racing.
Tony Kanaan, St Pete's 2007
Fernando Alonso on the difference between an IndyCar and an F1 car, May 3rd 2017
I miss my fans so much, you have no idea. I think I appreciate them more then I ever did.
Sarah Fisher, August 2006
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
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
Less than a mile an hour and I'm on pole. It's tough. It's IndyCar. It's why we love it.
Scott McLaughlan on qualifying at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 22nd 2023, via Speed Street
Gentlemen... restart your engines!

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
Whether you're a fan in turn 1 or turn 4, it doesn't matter what position you have. We all make the Indianapolis 500 what it is.

I still have the passion to drive the hell out of it!

Cheever had a problem with my dad, he had a problem with me, and now he's taking it out on Marco.
Michael Andretti, Watkins Glen 2006
Someone asked me if I win the Indy 500 if I'd still retire? I'd still retire. What better way to go out?
Danica Patrick on her final race, racing.ap.org, March 7th 2018
3-horse chase. Power, Dixie and GR
Curt Cavin with a new twist on an old saying, GP of Baltimore 2013
If you run around in the back with the squirrels, you're bound to get your nuts cracked.
