"Winning is everything. The only ones who remember you when you come second are your wife and your dog."
"There are a lot of factors in the life of an F1 driver which can combine to make you believe that you are somehow above normality. I think that is a mistake to start believing that. But, at the same time, it is important to be confident."

"If I am pushed I will push back, that is the way I am. I am very British. We don't like to be pushed around. When the chips are down we might have to step into grey areas."
"You should never feel comfortable. There is something wrong if you are. You should always feel under threat, on the edge of your seat and pushing yourself. Win one and you want to win more. It's never-ending."
"The British tend to shy away from the spotlight. We don't like being singled out in any way, and I think that is something which is important for me to learn to do."
"After you've had Alain Prost and Ayrton Senna as team-mates you don't give a **** who the next bloke is"
"People ask me to describe myself, but it's a very personal thing. You don't feel comfortable."
