It seemed like whenever I got a bona fide offer from Ferrari, I couldn't do it. And vice versa - when I was ready, their seats were taken. We always had a relationship, but what's important is that I pretty much started my F1 career with them and ended it there, too.

Mario Andretti -
When a car's ahead of you, as long as you can see it, you get a tow, just like the draft in NASCAR. Even if it's a long ways down the track, it punches a hole in the air that has to help. When you're running alone, you can feel the difference, and it shows on the clock, too.
Mario Andretti -
I look at myself as the luckiest man alive.
Mario Andretti -
A racing car is an animal with a thousand adjustments.

When you are losing it can seem like there is a black cloud following you around, but like they say there is a silver lining in every cloud.
Mario Andretti -
If you're so afraid of failure, you will never succeed. You have to take chances.
Mario Andretti -
In NASCAR, you can do a lot of banging around and get pretty serious and even get yourself upside down. All of those things can happen - and then you give an interview two seconds later.
