I've decided to retire from top class racing. It has been an incredible experience and has provided with me some unforgettable moments.

Faster is fatal, slower is safe.

What I know about auto racing could be inscribed with a dry Magic Marker on the lip of a Coke bottle.

Simply racing a Formula 1 car is an achievement.

In racing, they say that your car goes where your eyes go. The driver who cannot tear his eyes away from the wall as he spins out of control will meet that wall; the driver who looks down the track as he feels his tires break free will regain control of his vehicle.

You can easily die racing to cover a bank robbery as you can in a war zone.

Most fellas like the races, though, Miss. It’s only human nature.

We were racing at circuits where there were no crash barriers in front of the pits, and fuel was lying about in churns in the pit lane. A car could easily crash into the pits at any time. It was ridiculous.

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

But my passion is racing cars. It's what I like to do in my off time.
