Max Verstappen

My first memory of motor racing - I think it was just attending a go kart race.

It changes from track-to-track, but when you are behind someone, you know after a few laps where they are weaker and stronger around the lap. You try to position yourself in the best possible way to attack them at a point they don't expect or at the point that they are just not as strong as you. That's how you try to get past.

My career is more important than girls.

You always try to fight for yourself, isn't it? You try to do the best possible job.

Of course I am doing a good job, but you can always improve, and I just leave it up to people outside, around me or whatever, to judge on that.

Ever since I was 7 years old, Formula 1 has been my career goal, so this opportunity is truly a dream come true.

It doesn't matter as long as, at one point, I'm in a championship-winning car. I don't care about my team-mate.

The only place that matters is first.

That's what I enjoy, always driving on the limit of what you can do.

The smell of fuel, driving on the limit on the edge of sliding, it just gives you a lot of adrenaline.

There is no such thing as a low risk lap in Monaco. It doesn't exist if you want to be fast, because you have to be on the limit.

At the end of the day, driving on the limit, sometimes over it to achieve the best out of it, especially at such high speeds... mistakes are easily done.
