Good morning from the start/finish line at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
Tom Carnegie
The worst thing about crashing A.J.'s car twice in two days is you still have to go to dinner with him. And he makes you buy, and then he eats your bowl of ice cream, too.
Billy Boat
It's great that it's one minute after six!
Marty Roth, Indy Bump Day 2007
It was a tough day – really disappointing... I guess it was a good day in reality.

Simon Pagenaud on Will Power's misfortune at Sonoma, ESPN.com, September 18th 2016

Now it's obvious we were too conservative, we should have just gone for it

Going into Texas with four wheels on the car is pretty exciting!
Sarah Fisher after the 2009 Indianapolis 500
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

I drove the best race of my whole career!
Rinus VeeKay on finishing 5th at the IMS Road Course, July 4th 2020

If we're not racing hard, we're not racing.

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
I wish Beaux Barfield was officiating when I was driving - I'd have gotten a lot less penalties!

A happy wife is a happy life!

Sam Schmidt on Chevy's advantage with domed skids, Racer.com, April 7th 2016
