    Marco Andretti on why the Honda teams were struggling, Barber, April 27th 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.

    Ryan Hunter Reay, Indy 500 Bump Day 2009

    Dan Wheldon on Danica Patrick, June 2007

  • This is just an excellent race and to be a part of the history, I'm really grateful for that.

    Roger Yasukawa, Indy 2007

  • We're all back to square zero!

    James Hinchcliffe on the start of a new season, Trackside, March 18th 2014

    Conor Daly on Bison, IndyCar.com March 23rd 2021
