Quotes

  • "I tell you, this is what racing is all about.  It's hard but it's so cool."  Juan Pablo Montoya, during the 2006 Ford 400 after David Gilliland's crash
  • "I did accomplish what I was looking for.  I got experience and got to know the guys and it was good."  Juan Pablo Montoya, after the 2006 Ford 400
  • "It takes a lot of confidence and it's a huge amount of pressure to say, 'I'm leaving F1 and going over to NASCAR.'  You've got to give him credit for that, which is why he's been accepted so well.  And it's good for the sport.  Once that competition side starts coming out and he starts competing for wins...once he starts winning, that's all going to change."  Jeff Gordon, on Juan Pablo Montoya's move from Formula 1 to NASCAR
