I wanted to be a race car driver when I was a kid.

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

For the last seven years, I have been racing the best in the world and making my way through the ranks. I am in that spot where I have got a real opportunity to produce something. I am not going to take it for granted because I know those guys will step it up.

I started track and field when I was 12 and didn't get to an Olympic Games until I was nearly 23. By any stretch of the imagination that's a very long apprenticeship.

When I was a kid, I wanted to be a footballer and racing driver, like all kids.

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

I found my interest lapse in both acting and racing.

I raced locally for a year, went to Europe the year after and went to the Olympics the year after that.

I enjoy racing so much. Ever since I was 8 or 9, I trained every stroke, because it was the only way I could race a lot.
