I was extremely aggressive from the start.

Everything happened very quickly in my career. It was a very great honor for me to break Jim Clarks record (as youngest champion).

I go to see grand prix every year, and I watch every race on TV for sure. I probably go to three or four CART races and three or four Formula One races.

I wanted to be the best in the world.

I was extremely lucky. I had some huge crashes and yet I am still here, thanks to God.

I have to accept risk as a racing driver.

I am very happy because motor racing is very important outside the states, very big all over the world.
