I didn't have statistics in my mind when I was racing. It was always a consequence - a nice consequence. I enjoyed it, but it wasn't the reason I was racing.

Your ups and downs in sports, I think they are as normal as daily life: One day you wake up and feel great, the next day you wake up and feel maybe less great.

You try to hide your emotions, so as not to show weaknesses to others. I believe it's the same for every sportsman.

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

I cant really imagine life without Formula One.

My kids are not known, and I think that is very important. So far they have lived a normal life, and will continue to do so. I feel they should have the possibility to live a free life without the burden of fame I have created.

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.
