I have to accept risk as a racing driver.

As a driver, you want to race every lap possible, especially when you've got a good car.

The racing driver's mind has to have the ability to have amazing anticipation, coordination, and reflex. Because of the speed the car goes.

Beside the brand-ambassador elements of the modern racing driver, the evolution of the athlete has mandated that as drivers, we are very committed to fitness.

I'm a good driver.

To be a racing driver it's essential you have very good eyesight, and that's especially relevant at night. Your senses are heightened, you're travelling over 200mph, you need to focus on that 110-metre braking point and you have to have absolute faith and commitment in your driving.

I've been racing for my whole life, and I know what I need to do to be able to win.

Ultimately, the best driver will always do something special, whatever the rules and whatever the regulations. Same thing with the teams.
