I guess it is the sense of personal satisfaction that racing gives you that I am probably going to miss, because in racing you get that feedback very quickly.

When you are racing in an able-bodied competition, you're all equal and you go out there and try your best, and that's what counts.

We're involved in racing because there's that element of competition. But there's that desire to push yourself beyond the natural comfort zone and the boundaries that are preset if you like, and to be better than the rest.

Racing is a very selfish, self-centred, self-glorifying thing. My wife's life for 14 years was centered around me. It was all about me. It was all for my ego.

My whole feeling in terms of racing is that you have to be very bold. You sometimes have to be aggressive and gamble.

Racing amuses me.

The racing driver's mind has to have the ability to have amazing anticipation, coordination, and reflex. Because of the speed the car goes.

When you start thinking you may get hurt, it's time to get out of racing.

When you are fitted in a racing car and you race to win, second or third place is not enough.

Perhaps the single most important element in mastering the techniques and tactics of racing is experience. But once you have the fundamentals, acquiring the experience is a matter of time.
