The cost of motoring is a massive issue at the moment, there's no question. The price of petrol goes up every time you go to the petrol station.

Why do you need to drive a Ferrari to get stuck in a traffic jam anyway? How do people afford these cars?

There is no reason why, with the huge potential for market out there in the world for fuel-efficient vehicles, we can't be the cutting edge for change.

But due to the present regulations the other drivers have better chances again. This brings back the tension.

The greatest luxury is not driving. I didn't own a car until I was 30, and that was a Rolls-Royce, so it was cheaper to insure a chauffeur. I never want to drive again. My mind is always on other things. I hate parking, and I'm very short-tempered and would get road rage, I'm sure.

Because you want to have competition to drive down the price. You want innovation. You have the ability to get people to agree that it's worth having a public plan. You could get private insurers to cover this population, but you couldn't without giving the population leverage in the marketplace.

Racing has reached the point where it is pricing the young driver, no matter his talent, out of the game.

I believe in the principle that if you have more competition, it will drive down the prices.

Anybody who can drive and doesn't come out of it a rich man is a fool.

The hybrid engine costs a lot of money, and customers are hardly willing to spend so much more for a car.
