I never thought I'd be a role model this early. It caught me off-guard, but it says a lot about how I was brought up, what my values have been, and how my parents raised me. It's very flattering that being myself is enough to be a role model.

I've never asked for special treatment along the way. And I'm never going to hide the fact that I'm a girl, ever. That's obvious, isn't it?

You know, it's always good to have seen a track before, just to kind of know where the little bumps are here and there, and just the general feel for the size.

I want to win at everything. I usually don't like things that I'm not good at, but it doesn't mean I don't want to win at them.

I think there's a lot of deep-rooted history in England with racing. Lots of Formula One teams are based there. Formula One is obviously a huge sport over in England and Europe.

At the after-party of the Indy 500, I'm usually wearing jeans and a tank top.

No matter how good you are, how brave you are or anything, it comes down to that car so many times. Not every time, but so many times.
