Figured we could use an appreciation thread on this guy. After watching his drive in the Indy 500 last year, he earned a fan.

Ran into this article, thought it was chalked full of interesting quotes by him.

Yeah he's my guy as well. I'm still not in love with the Indy Car product, same as F1, but I try to dedicate more time to it each year.

When I was racing in Europe and growing up oval racing was kind of taboo for me and I was not interested in it because of the impacts, how big they are, and what’s happened to people. But then once you kind of get over that and start participating in the events and doing it, it’s some of the most fun racing that you can have in a racecar on the planet I think.

The actual product (F1), the racing entertainment product isn’t that good whereas in IndyCar it’s awesome and you never know who’s going to win and it’s kind of a ****fight to figure out who’s going to win.

I knew I liked this guy.
