I have no problem with the people who work hard to get success. But I think people are very jealous about success. I work very hard and they don't appreciate that.

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

I have always had this mentality because I hated to break anything on the car.

I always work the same way, starting from the beginning of the weekend, so I know at the beginning of the race, from all that I have analysed during the practice, whether I will win the race or not.

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.

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.

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