Nobody in Formula One has won so many titles, so many races as I did. So Ferrari for me is crucial; it is more than important.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
And that just shows you how important the car is in Formula One Racing.
I have two or three cars that I like, but today, Ferrari would be the best car I have driven in terms of being an impressive car.
I must use Ferrari to the maximum. My priority is to get results. Then we will see what happens.
Formula 1 has to be more and more also a laboratory, a centre of advanced research for innovative technologies for tomorrow's cars. The KERS is very important in this context, and Ferrari as a manufacturer had, and has, extraordinary support in Formula 1.
When I race in Australia or Korea or Japan, I know it will be a big change for me because Ferrari fans are worldwide. It's very nice if you win, but it's not so good if you lose. All this is part of being a Ferrari driver.
Ferrari gives you a special feeling.

Winning in Monaco is always special. That track has always been good to me. I won there in Formula 3000, battled for the victory with Williams in 2006 and now I've won two of the last three grands prix there.
In Formula One, the car can make a difference in a way that a driver cannot. Whereas Michael Schumacher and Ayrton Senna spent their early seasons in second-rate machinery, Hamilton walked into the equal best car on the grid. His first season none the less has, by any standards, been extraordinary.
After five years in Ferrari, being second all the time, I think it was enough for me.
