Without the IRL, a lot of guys would never have been able to show what they can do.
Tony Stewart, May 2007

Scott Dixon on Alex Palou's contract dispute, Toronto, July 15th 2022
Some of the drivers who don't want to do the Indy 500, they just have small balls. I think that's the only explanation.

Danica Patrick on her final race, racing.ap.org, March 7th 2018
...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
I need a nap now.
Colton Herta on winning his first IndyCar race, COTA, 24th March 2019
Will he get through?
Where is he?
Where is he?
There he is!

The wall came too close and too quickly.
Fernando Alonso after crashing in practice, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 15th 2019
When I saw he was slowing down, I have to say it was a relief. I thought, 'Now we can finally unleash the beast inside and go for the win.'
Simon Pagenaud on Will Power's misfortune at Sonoma, ESPN.com, September 18th 2016
