"If you don't have the balls to brake late, that's your problem."
"I don't aspire to be like other drivers - I aspire to be unique in my own way."
"In racing there are always things you can learn, every single day. There is always space for improvement, and I think that applies to everything in life."
"Obviously I am not happy but they can throw what they want at me, I will come back stronger."
"I have no fear of death, so I don't think about it. I love the adrenalin kick that danger brings. Others get their kicks bungee jumping from tall buildings. I'm very, very competitive. I want to be the best at everything I do. It's not driving - it's everything - it might be playing my guitar, I try to be the best at it as I possibly can."
