Riding a race bike is an art - a thing that you do because you feel something inside.

I have a lot of energy after 2 A.M. I like to sleep in the morning. I have some problems at the start of the day.

I would have probably stolen cars - it would have given me the same adrenaline rush as racing.

I race to win. If I am on the bike or in a car it will always be the same.

I am able to ride the bike and think clearly about strategy and tyres. I also have positive thinking. I am very constructively critical.

I don't like being famous - it is like a prison. And driving for Ferrari would make it far worse.

The great fights with your strongest rivals are always the biggest motivation. When you win easily it's not the same taste.
