The preparation, commitment and desire to win will be no less than the last time I drove a grand prix car in anger.

The format of the race weekend is also very well thought out. We have enough practice time to get the cars well set-up and have a proper qualifying session where we can do as many laps as we like, which is great for the drivers and spectators.

I've been in motorsport my whole life since I was eight years of age.

Everything in Formula 1 has been sterilised now, the whole thing is controlled too much.

Alain will do everything in his power to win, he doesn't like getting beaten by anyone and least of all me.

I've tried everything other than jumping out of a plane, but nothing gives you an adrenaline rush like racing a car.
