In racing, there is no question who is best - the first one to cross the finish line wins first prize. But with wine, even if you make the best wine in the world, someone isn't going to like it, because it isn't their style. Judging wine is very subjective.

I don't have many superstitions, just dumb things I don't talk about. I will not sign an autograph with a green pen.

Desire is the key to motivation.

Nobody is born with a steering wheel or a gear shift in his hand. It's something you choose to do or you don't.

When a car's ahead of you, as long as you can see it, you get a tow, just like the draft in NASCAR. Even if it's a long ways down the track, it punches a hole in the air that has to help. When you're running alone, you can feel the difference, and it shows on the clock, too.

If you're so afraid of failure, you will never succeed. You have to take chances.

Motor racing is like one big family, ultimately, and when you come back to it, that's really what it feels like.
