On a given day, a given circumstance, you think you have a limit.

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

[talking about the race at Imola circuit] There are no small accidents on this circuit.

You will never know the feeling of a driver when winning a race. The helmet hides feelings that cannot be understood.

And suddenly I realised that I was no longer driving the car consciously. I was driving it by a kind of instinct, only I was in a different dimension.

I have no idols. I admire work, dedication and competence.
