Certainly, the team has given me very fast cars week in, week out, … I’ve been able to take advantage of some unfortunate situations. We’ve been quick, and if something has happened, fortunately, I’ve been...

I actually won the Indy 500.

We are going to have a good party for this, and it will be on Bryan’s tab.

I had a Sonoma race where I was disappointed in the result, … I wanted to make amends for that. That was the longest period of time I’ve ever had between races. From the last...

When you think Danica grabbed the headlines, you wait until he starts. She’ll be jealous of him.

It was very difficult to race under circumstances like this. This is a job that can be pretty vicious at times with a lot of highs mixed in.

The superspeedways, with the cars we have at Andretti Green Racing, you can get to the front pretty quick,

It’s large coming back here to drive as a champion although I was at the Speedway as a spectator for the Formula One race [in June]. This is the best track in the world, bar...

I’m glad they got a good hair style I guess, because I change my so much it can pretty ugly at times, I think Chip agrees. It’s great to have your face on the trophy...

I wasn’t pissed. I had just realized a dream of 10 years.

Scott and I already were talking that we want to make a big impact next year. That’s a goal. I had a lot of success this season, and I’m looking to do the same (in...

can contend for points.

I anticipate a really good race because, even though the championship is decided in my favor, second, third and fourth places are still up for grabs,

Today was a very disappointing day,

The nicest thing is that I’m going to be able to sleep now,

Well, you know, she was something different. But I don’t begrudge her anything. I can look back at what I’ve accomplished with my team this year and be very happy. And, I suspect, she feels...

It was very difficult to race under these circumstances. It’s a job, and it can be pretty vicious at times.

It looked very, very bad, … It’s not nice to think about. I think a lot of us will certainly stop by and see if we can see him this evening.

I know it certainly didn’t fare well for Scott Dixon, but I don’t think that was through any fault of his own, … That year, things didn’t go their way. They had some bad luck....

I’m disappointed that we weren’t quicker, to be honest. The Target car is really good on the long runs but I just couldn’t get it up to speed quickly enough in qualifying trim.

Both series have great events. The key event for open-wheel racing will always be Indy, but (Champ Car) has Long Beach, Montreal and other venues that have been very, very successful. If they come together,...

I think my hair is a little longer than it was in May. I think my PR agent is a little miffed at me because I forgot to shave, as well.

The biggest thing having the same engine in every car is stability and the series needs that right now. It’s the same for everybody.

I’m glad we started off right because I think Chip will be more motivated now to help us develop some stuff.

To have won the Indy 500 and the championship is very special.

I think Jenson somewhat screwed me up there,

The biggest thing for me is the self-satisfaction of winning the race. I don’t care about who gets the most attention. I’ve achieved something that’s very special to me.

I don’t think it’s going to be as close as people are making out. I honestly think it’s going to be between five or six cars, and they are going to be some ways ahead...

Now when we get to Watkins Glen, that’s going to be the slowest lap in history. I’m going to tell the team not to expect me to set a flyer on that first one.

I’ll definitely be in the IndyCar Series, but Michael [Andretti] has got to keep paying me some more, … I think we’re getting pretty close. It’s just stuff between lawyers right now.

A lot of the hard work was done at Chicago, but until you finally clinch it, I don’t think you feel like you have. I’m ecstatic.

It was an up-and-down day. My pace just wasn’t consistent and that’s what cost me.

I’m very proud of this team. They worked so hard all night long. There are some famous names that have won this race, and to now be on that list is very, very special.

To win both in the same year I think is an unbelievable achievement. I thought I would be able to do it in my career, but not so early. You think you’re asking for too...

This has been a dream come true for me. The best drivers in the world and the best teams in the world are here and I’m just so proud…Thank you everybody.

If it came down to it and I was told I could win the championship with no victories or come second in the championship with 10 I much prefer to win a lot.

As competitive as all of us have been, the relationships have stayed very, very close, and that has been a very enjoyable experience for me. We push each other harder than anyone else out there....

You think you’re asking too much to win the championship, too,

In England, if you win the championship, that enables you to run the #1 the following year, and you do it because it somewhat takes the value of winning the championship away if you’re not...

Last year, and I’m praising Honda here at the expense of Andretti Green Racing, we perhaps didn’t work as hard on the car as we perhaps needed to, because we had the traction control. Now,...

Winning the Indianapolis 500 was very special to me, … but winning six races is something I’ll look back on and think that was a strong season.

They will never give me equal treatment because I’m the baby of the team, … My rental car has probably lost its tires by now.

The one thing I’ve learned about this league is don’t get excited too soon, … It’s going to be a difficult race. My teammates are going to push me really hard. Last year, I struggled...

I look forward to the rest of the season, but until it’s mathematically impossible for anybody to catch me I’m going to keep trying to do the same.

They like the wine. I didn’t see a sober (sponsor).

We’re not too worried about it because you don’t get points for qualifying. We know we’ve got a strong package and I’m looking forward to defending my win here and start the season off on...

Tony and I did it to the Penskes earlier in the weekend in practice. If you’ve got two cars running in line very close to each other, you can pick up speed like that. It...

If it came down to it and I was told that I could win the championship with no victories or come second in the championship with 10, that’s the kind of guy I am. I...

Anytime your boss tells you yes or no, you have to respect their decision.

I’ve certainly got three teammates that are going to feature strongly. I’m going to have to rely on them for some help.
