I wanted to be a race car driver when I was a kid.

My career in racing started at a very young age in California.

Having competed themselves, my father and my uncle are very passionate about motorsport, so I inherited it from them.

I've been in motorsport my whole life since I was eight years of age.

I've always had a fascination with cars and racing, not that I've ever competed.

I got into cars through my father. He used to work on cars. My job was to hold the light, which pretty much was the limit of my mechanical abilities.

My extensive career, with its victories and defeats, championships, etc., has been well documented. My entire life has been focused on being the best race car driver I can be.

Driving race cars was an avenue for me to learn how to build my own car, and that was my ambition all along.

I have to accept risk as a racing driver.

My father was a motorsports journalist and a motorbike fan. He gave me my motocross bike.
