I love it in the States. The roads are big, the food is big. If it was possible to be in L.A. and still live my racing life, I would move now.

What people tend to forget is the journey that I had getting to Formula One. There were plenty of years where I had to learn about losing and having bad races.

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

It was my 44th win [in Monaco]; 44 is my race number; and it's been my number since I was 8. And it's my family's number as well. So it was a special day, for sure.

I enjoy trying to develop a car and Mercedes are one of the biggest car manufacturers in the world.

I always thought, if I can affect one kid and help him or her fulfil their dreams, that would be kinda neat, so I want to ensure that I'm remembered in a good way.

When you're driving, the helmet squashes your hair, so you don't really have a hairstyle. When you get out, you're sweating and your hair is a mess.
