I told my nephew that if he wanted to get on in motor racing, the first thing he should do was master English. Thank goodness he now speaks it.

A crazy man finishes in the cemetery.

You must always strive to be the best, but you must never believe that you are.

Never think of your car as a cold machine, but as a hot-blooded horse.

In my time, you needed to speak a little Italian, and that was it.

You need great passion, because everything you do with great pleasure, you do well.

I learned to approach racing like a game of billiards. If you bash the ball too hard, you get nowhere. As you handle the cue properly, you drive with more finesse.
