I think fans of the sport have a good understanding now of how fit Formula One drivers need to be.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
And that just shows you how important the car is in Formula One Racing.
First time I looked at a Formula One car in person, I just stared at the cockpit, figuring I'd never get in there. The drivers wear the whole car like a tight-fitting suit.
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.
In F1 too many things overshadow the racing. There is too much politics.
You tend to think that there is a big gap between F1 and everything else. F1 is where all the fantastic drivers are, so you just don't know how good you are until you get there.
I think social networks are really working for the drivers, because we're able to talk directly to fans and they get first-hand information. And I think it's great for the partners as well and the businesses that are involved in Formula One.
A racing driver has to be a good driver.
Every NASCAR driver watches Formula One in the morning; they are well informed.
Everybody who knows Formula 1 knows McLaren and knows that it is the greatest team in Formula 1.
There are no drivers like Formula One drivers. They are engineers, in a way. They are driving manual cars one-handed at 200 miles per hour around streets in Monaco. These cars use the ultimate in technology.
