Ball position is everything in iron play. If you aren't careful about it, you can create some major problems in your game just by getting an inch or two off.

If I'm played out of position, I'll always give 100%, but everyone knows I would rather play down the middle.

Center is a very tough position to play.

When you're out on the touchline, like a winger, it is easier to play. You see everything: the mess, the crowd, the activity is all inside. When you play inside, you don't see anything in there because so much is happening in such a small space and all around you.

I play on the left hand side, and I try to do the best I can.

If I had to pick favourite parts of Interlagos, I would say the first and last corners. The first corner is really technical and punishes you if you get it wrong, while the last corner is so fast and really puts quite a strain on your body. As a driver, I really enjoy these corners.

Place hitting is, in a sense, glorified bunting. I only take a half swing at the ball, and the weight of the bat rather than my swing is what drives it.

Then you figure out that if you don't throw it as hard as you can, you can put it where you want. It's more important where you put it.

It's easier to get to the top when you're shooting for the top.

I find outdoors easier than indoors, but I am more interested in indoor athletics. I prefer it because it is hotter indoors, and I like the shorter laps.
