In California, especially Northern California, the fans really cheer for me.

I feel like I'm getting to be a better driver every day.

I don't like to get beat in anything!

I think perception is important.

I want to race as long as I'm having fun, it's competitive and healthy, and who knows when that, you know, date comes when that's not happening anymore.

I want to force the other drivers to find a way past me.

As fast as we're going these days, especially because of the aerodynamics, we're all concerned about abusing tires. It's so fast that you're afraid of what you're going to do to the tires.
