People get excited around me and behave differently than they would normally. I don't feel different from anyone else, except that I drive a racing car round in circles faster than somebody else.

Just being a mediocre driver has never been my ambition. That's not my style.

In football, I need full concentration even though I really enjoy it.

I've always believed that you should never, ever give up and you should always keep fighting even when there's only a slightest chance.

I cant really imagine life without Formula One.

I have really enjoyed my time at Ferrari, not just because of the successes.

I have to say it's been tough to leave the Ferrari family, which has been a big part of my career.
