My dad lives in Sicily, so I'm half Italian and half Irish - it's a fiery combination.

Pressure is always a part of a racing driver's life, but my father helped me a lot on my way to becoming a F1 driver.

For me it was a normality having a father who was a world champion. I grew up with that, so it was never extra pressure. And I've never felt the need to emerge from his shadow.

Your voice is your identity. If you don't use it- you're halfway to Asphodel already.

It's very, very special for me. This is where I've grown up, it's my home, and winning the Monaco Grand Prix is the highlight of any racing driver's career and for me a childhood dream. It being my home makes it all the more special, unbelievable.

My dad is a great manager. He's not just competent - he's very clever.

I remember my father's last race very clearly when he drove at Hockenheim in front of 100,000 people and I was sitting next to him on the roof of his car and waving to the fans. That was the moment when I thought: 'One day I want to do the same.'
