I went blonde which killed my hair. It was a disaster. I think it was neat to do it for a bit.

Sure every driver has his value and you want to be respected... but again money is not something that drives me.

Nothing can really prepare you for when you get in the Formula One car. Knowing that you're driving a multimillion-dollar car, and if you crash it it's going to cost a lot of money, and they might not give you another chance, is scary.

I feel like people are expecting me to fail, therefore, I expect myself to win.

As long as you win Monaco, that's the one. In my ten years of Formula One, I've only won here once. This is my second time.Every year, it feels like this is your Achilles heel. You almost have it and then you don't. It's such a hard race to win.

I grew up going to the store, seeing the products [of L'Oréal ], seeing the commercials and the ambassadors. I never in a million years thought I'd be associated with them.

We have 21 races in the year and Monaco is the one that you want to win.
