airplane successful littles
Totally uneventful. It was a very successful first flight. To be honest, it was a little bit boring.
reality thinking race
It was a bit of a surprise for us that we had problems in Hungary. But in reality, I think the car could have been pretty competitive with a trouble-free race.
jobs looks world
I look at myself as someone who has been very lucky - my job is also what I enjoy most in the world, and I can make my life doing it.
race lost starting
The race is lost. You can't overtake here and I'm starting from 15th... It's over already.
thinking america people
I like America, and I think probably the American people like me.
sports country strong
I am very proud of what we have built in Spain, because it is not a traditional Formula 1 country. I think we have found passionate fans, and built up a strong culture for the sport - and things are improving every day, with more and more people getting interested.
jobs destiny long
For me, it was not destiny to make it to where I am now - I thought for a long- time I would become a go-kart mechanic, or a job like this, not an F1 driver.
rights tvs spain
In Spain there were no TV rights for Formula One.
race japan korea
When I race in Australia or Korea or Japan I know it will be a big change for me because Ferrari fans are worldwide.
stressed-out another-day calm
I have always been very calm on the outside.
race lap
I like to race, not to do laps alone.

I thought I would be a go-kart mechanic - not an F1 driver
