You're not going to out-Dixon Dixon!
James Hinchcliffe on trying to beat Scott Dixon on fuel mileage, during the Bommarito Automative 500, August 27th 2023
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.
Dan Wheldon, Kansas 2007
Milka, if you're gonna go that slow you gotta drive your mirrors, hon'!

My picture isn't everywhere, but people recognize me. I'm telling you, it's the nose.
Tony Kanaan, May 2007
I am stupid.
Zach Veach on Zach Veach after an off track excursion, IMS, July 4th 2020
...if everyone agrees on a spec kit, IndyCar needs to really use the chance to get something that looks good, doesn't have all this winglet crap stuck all over it, and doesn't create all this dirty air.
Will Power on aerokits, motorsport.com, May 4th 2016
The Indy 500 was the defining stage of my career.
Mario Andretti
Again, I was scared to death. I had zero grip, and I was lifting at the start/finish line going into one. It's embarrassing.
Marco Andretti, Kansas 2007
I can't control what size I am and how I'm built. All I know is the NBA doesn't lower the hoop for short guys.

This is a great decision by IndyCar. Plus it gives me another month to get ready.

James Hinchcliffe on INDYCAR mandating domed skids, Motorsport.com, April 5th 2016

Robbie Buhl, after winning at WDW in 2000
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
Brian Clauson's car got pretty beat up yesterday. It's black and blue all over
Justin Wilson on Brian Clauson's patchwork DW12, bump day, Indy 2012
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's just great, pure racing.
Sebastien Bourdais on IndyCar, June 2015

Will Power on aerokits, Motorsport.com, May 4th 2016
I drove it like I stole it!

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

Jack Harvey on the Indianapolis 500, indianapolismotorspeedway.com, February 21st 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
Some people strap on their helmet and lose their brains.

The last I looked, I earned the label of Indy 500 champion; those lobbing unfounded accusations at me have not.

The Indy 500 is the biggest race in the world. I don't think it's even debatable. It is.

Will Power on the art of restarting, St Pete's, March 30th 2014
If we're racing on Superspeedways with catch fencing, I fear we're just playing the odds until we have something protecting our heads. It’s a scary thing to say.
