Do you know, why I really love my helmet that much? Because it makes me 15 centimetres taller!

Does it scare me, driving into nothing at 300kph? - Of course it does - I'm not an idiot.

I like the mentality of the Americans. It's like when you talk about money.

I'm brave to say that I won't take this sort of risk.

So in fact the only thing you can judge in this sport its the longterm. You can judge a career or a season, but not one race.

When you win a race like this the feeling is very, very good. There have been times when I have been flat-out to finish sixth, but you can't see that from the outside. In 1980 I finished three or four times in seventh place. I pushed like mad, yet everyone was gathered around the winner and they were thinking that I was just trundling around. But that's motor racing. So in fact the only thing you can judge in this sport is the long term. You can judge a career or a season, but not one race.

When I test I never go right to the limit. Only because when you are below the limit you can go at the same speed all day, and that's the only way you can be absolutely sure about what you are testing.
