"Juan Montoya is magic...In the '70s, the young hotshoe was a guy named Gilles Villeneuve. In the '80s, it was Aryton Senna. Montoya is quite likely going to be the one to take that role at the end of the '90s.", Marc Sproule, from Cart.com. (Jun-1999)
"Juan is a very impressive young man who has surprised all of us with his winning streak," said Jimmy Vasser, CART's 1996 champion, "We thought he would win races this year, but three in a row? No one knew that. But when you talk to Juan, you realize he's so mentally tough and focused that nothing is ever out of his reach. From the start, he's tested well and paid close attention to Alex and myself, and he and Morris have become very close. I offer advice On the tracks that are new to him, but he's such a quick study, I wonder if he needs it. It's fun to be part of a team that can keep winning year in and year out, and Juan's just the guy to help us fight for another championship." (May-1999)
"Not only is Juan fast, he is also proving to be a very smart driver," team manager Mike Hull (Test en Milwaukee -ovalo de una milla- Abr.25)
"He's incredible," "He's so fast and he thinks so well in the race car. And he's so cool. All he kept saying today was 'Don't worry.' Morris Nunn, (Long Beach - Abr.18)
"The first time we saw him test at Barcelona (Spain, last winter in an F-1 test), I knew he was a winner. At this stage of his career, he's way ahead of anybody I've ever seen." Morris Nunn, the veteran engineer for Target/Ganassi Racing (Abr. 1999)
