“I found myself sitting in the RB7 and smiling.”

Sometimes you need to press pause to let everything sink in.

The track in Abu Dhabi is special; this will be our third Grand Prix there.

When I went into the last lap I was regretting a bit that it was over. I was enjoying again the first sector for the last time.

The day I die or retire, I have blown all my chances because I don’t have the chance any more to change my image as an F1 driver.

All in all it was a smooth race, the car was very well balanced. I’m very proud to be the first winner here in India.

If you are out in two races and someone else has a good couple of races, it could change. So all we do is try to get the optimum every time.

I’m very proud to be the first winner of the Indian Grand Prix, but then on the other hand we recently lost two of our mates.

Motorsport is very expensive. No one cares if you had a good season two years ago and then you have an injury. It is a very dodgy investment.

There are some things that you can fulfil with money, but at the end of the day these are not the things that make you happy. It is the small things that make life good.

There is no secret, once we go to qualifying, we all seem to enjoy it. Qualifying is all about putting everything that you have and that the car has in one lap. It’s like a rush, I really enjoy that.

It’s fantastic to be invited; I’m so happy. To represent Team Germany together with Michael Schumacher is a great honor.

I don’t care what other people think as long as I am happy.

Generally I don’t care about what people say. I have to be clear with myself.

As a driver, your target is always to be with the most competitive team possible.

You’re traveling all over the world but to be home is something special.

Of course, you always give 100 percent, but at a home race you’re always more motivated, simply because you feel at home.

I once tried thinking for an entire day, but I found it less valuable than one moment of study.

In my experience as CEO, I found that the most important decisions tested my courage far more than my intelligence.

A CEO needs great intelligence and great courage. And I always found my courage was tested more.

That part of the Englishman’s nature which has found gratification in religion is now drifting into political life.

I have always found women difficult. I don’t really understand them. To begin with, few women tell the truth.

“Criminal justice” was a term she found more apt than it was meant to be.

A recent survey or North American males found 42% were overweight, 34% were critically obese and 8% ate the survey.

The thing we tell of can never be found be seeking, yet only seekers find it.
