When I do retire, I know for a fact that I'll never be able to replace the incredible feeling I get when I'm driving an F1 car.

I need to develop a car and engineer a car in a position that feels comfortable for me, and I don't think anyone can do a better job than I can in that position. The problem for me is if I can't get the car there I do struggle more than some.

I think social networks are really working for the drivers, because we're able to talk directly to fans and they get first-hand information. And I think it's great for the partners as well and the businesses that are involved in Formula One.

My school reports always used to point out that my concentration levels were appalling. I never listened in class because I was always daydreaming about racing. I never thought for a moment about doing anything else. There was no guarantee that I'd make a career in it but I never had any plan B.

I like old tunes when I'm driving. They're fun and uplifting. Billy Ocean, that kind of thing.

I have made lots of mistakes in terms of contracts and spending money when I shouldn't have spent money.

Resting for me is fitness training.
