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

The driver of a racing car is a component. When I first began, I used to grip the steering wheel firmly, and I changed gear so hard that I damaged my hand.

Driving fast on the track does not scare me. What scares me is when I drive on the highway I get passed by some idiot who thinks he is Fangio.

Everything has changed. When I was at school and was told I had better learn English, I said: What for? The English are a hell of a long way away!

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

When I raced with Mercedes, I thought Id learn German. But my wife didnt want to live in Germany.
