The people who criticise you will not be the ones taking care of your legs when you are in your wheelchair. People who never drove a car in these conditions, they just don't know.

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

When I look fast, I'm not smooth and I am going slowly. And when I look slow, I am smooth and going fast.

People don't understand that it was maybe my biggest pleasure to drive an F1 car when it's wet.

That is an important part of my success. Another big part of my success is that I hated not to finish a race.

You want to have fun but you also want to work well. Sometimes I was quite happy at Ferrari, because we would have fun, but then they could not stop having fun and go back to the real work.

One of my biggest problems this season was with the clutch at the start of the race. I hate to risk the car.
