I like working in a team, and at Ferrari there is always good cooperation.

Those who have come into Formula One without experiencing cars devoid of electronic aids will find it tough. To control 800 horse power relying just on arm muscles and foot sensitivity can turn out to be a dangerous exercise.

Technology has certainly reduced performance differences among drivers. Whereas a talented driver could get a half-second out of every lap in the past, nowadays talent makes up for only about one or two tenths of a second. But the driver is still the key factor.

I'm Michael Schumacher. I don't need to test my driving ability.

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

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.

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.
