To be honest, I think for part of my late teens my character didn't really develop very much. I was in a state of cold storage.

I am a brush, the car is my track and the artist my canvas

It was five years since I'd won a race, so I was a bit bewildered.

The sport would not survive today if drivers were being killed at the rate they were in the 1960s and '70s. It would have been taken off the air. It is beamed into people's living rooms on Sunday afternoons, with children watching.

Realistically, we could aim for the top three in the constructors championship. Realistically, we could look at winning more races. Three race wins would be very satisfying.

I think at times I appear to be miserable when I am not... I might be having quite a good thought at that moment, but it seems I look miserable. I am not.

People ask me to describe myself, but it's a very personal thing. You don't feel comfortable.
