I have had some problems because the French don't like people to have success, they don't like the number one.

I was looking at the history of the sport and I couldn't understand why there have been so many good South American drivers, especially Brazilians.

I don't like to go over curbs, because I don't want to be hard on the car.

Sometimes I think I could have got some better results if I had a different mentality; if I could have pushed hard and attacked. But then I would have had a good chance of making a mistake.

It's not too good to have this attitude in F1. It could be a disadvantage.

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