If you no longer go for a gap that exists, you are no longer a racing driver.

Just because I believe in God, just because I have faith in God, it doesn't mean that I'm immune. It doesn't mean that I'm immortal.

Nothing can separate me from the love of God.

It's important that the drivers stay together, because in difficult moments we have each other. If we are not together the financial and political interests of the organisers and constructors come to the fore.

The past is just data. I only see the future.

With regard to performance, commitment, effort, dedication, there is no middle ground. Or you do something very well or not at all.

Sometimes I try to beat other people's achievements but on many occasions I find it's better to beat my own achievements. That can give me more satisfaction. I don't feel happy if I am comfortable. Something inside me pushes me when I get comfortable. It makes me go farther and I want to keep pushing.
