It was my only opportunity to win the race. I was going for it. I really knew the car was faster than Michael. |
It was probably the easiest race of the year, |
It was really, really good. The car performed extremely well again in the race, we were very competitive from the first lap, |
It was the perfect way to begin the year I think. We had a very exciting race for the spectators, and I think we can expect a very interesting start to the season. |
It was the perfect way to begin the year. We had a very exciting race for the spectators. As we thought from testing, there are four teams fighting to win at any type of circuit - Honda, McLaren, Ferrari and Renault. We can all win races, so it will be a fun time in the coming weeks. |
It will a new challenge for all of us, |
It would be fantastic for the spectators. I don't really like the current procedure, which I think is boring. |
It's a little bit frustrating with the start, obviously, because we lost a place. It should be easy to keep the pole position. It was really frustrating. |
It's a perfect start to the championship. Eight points is what I dreamed of before Bahrain. We'll be good everywhere. |
It's difficult to overtake if not impossible. Michael didn't make any mistakes. I was on the limit. |
It's impossible to live in Spain because the people recognize me too much and they get crazy. |
Knowing what it takes to win a title, I think they need a year running at the top first. Next year is more realistic for them. They'll make a big step at some point. |
Last year I was leading the race when I retired, and I have won here in Formula 3000, so I am feeling quite confident, |
McLaren have the pressure to be perfect until China (the season's finale), and if they are not, we will be there to punish them. |
My parents are responsible for the two things I like doing most - driving and magic tricks. They bought me my first go-kart and a magician's kit. |
