What can I say, the best therapy for me was to get in my Marlboro car and drive it.
"Alfred "Al" Unser" is an United States/American automobile racing driver, the younger brother of fellow racing drivers Jerry Unser/Jerry and Bobby Unser, and father of Al Unser, Jr.. Now retired, he is the second of three men to have won the Indianapolis 500/Indianapolis 500-Mile Race four times, the fourth of five to have won the race in consecutive years, and won in American Championship Car Racing in 1970, 1983, and 1985. He is the only person to have both a sibling (Bobby) and child (Al Jr.) as fellow Indy 500 winners. Al's nephews Johnny Unser/Johnny and Robby Unser have also competed in that race.
After his son Al Unser, Jr./Al Jr. joined the American Championship Car Racing/top circuit in 1983, Unser has generally been known by the retronymic name of "Al Unser, Sr." or "Big Al."

We can drive the car, we can drive it hard, and so we need to get in there and get some points in order to win this championship and put the Number One back on that Marlboro car. We're physically able to do it, so as long as we're physically able to do it at the at the level we need to then we're going to do it.
I tell all the rookies that come into our series and all the young drivers they can come ask me anything at any time, and we'll give them the straight shoot.
I think the people coming here are finding out a lot about the family that they didn't know.
If we get in an accident that's strong enough to break bones, it's going to break bones. What makes me a little bit higher risk is that if I break my right ankle again, I've got a bunch of screws and plates in there, and that would not be good.
I wouldn't mind meeting Eddie Van Halen. That would be great. We need to invite him to a race.
