Sometimes I think I could have got some better results if I had a different mentality; if I could have pushed hard and attacked. But then I would have had a good chance of making a mistake.
From Alain Prost
The people who criticise you will not be the ones taking care of your legs when you are in your wheelchair. People who never drove a car in these conditions, they just don't know.
Without going to what I think is my limit. I always say that my ideal is to get pole with the minimum effort, and to win the race at the slowest speed possible.
It's always better to speak the language of the team. Not only for the direct contact with everyone - sometimes it also helps you to understand the mentality of the people in the team a bit better.
I think maybe the English don't want to try something and look stupid, because they are a bit reserved.
A German team could be quite good. But maybe they are a little bit too convinced that they are the best.
It's not too good to have this attitude in F1. It could be a disadvantage.
You can't always have the best team. It's always a compromise.
Some Italians are geniuses, but you have to find a balance.
You want to have fun but you also want to work well. Sometimes I was quite happy at Ferrari, because we would have fun, but then they could not stop having fun and go back to the real work.
