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.

Once something is a passion, the motivation is there.

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

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

Losing composure is pointless.

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

I retired simply because I didn't have the passion and motivation anymore, I was tired. At the time I thought, 'Well, I had a great time, there is the end.' At some moment there is the right time to call it an end.
