A good driver can make up for bad equipment way more than a good car could make up for a bad driver.
I can parallel park pretty well - I'm a great driver.
Honestly, I feel nobody can drive a race car better than I can. Driving-wise, I feel like I can out-drive anybody.
You think I'm a pretty good race car driver? Wait until you see my brother. He's the best driver in the family.
I'm not the greatest driver. I don't know if I'll ever master the art.
My year with Ferrari was of incredible value to me. I learned a lot about all the technical aspects of the car and also how to improve my work with the engineers.
There are a lot of drivers who can carry a car. It doesn't happen very often very successfully. I think it takes a certain amount of sensible bravery. It's no good to be brave and just keep crashing.
I took a whole stunt course and pretty much got certified as a stunt driver. It's ridiculous how easy it is once you understand the car and know how to do it.
Ninety-nine percent of people who drive cars are not car experts.
And I'd get back to the cars being physical challenges to drive - to tame the beast. The cars we have at the moment are fantastic bits of engineering, but it's a little too comfortable, a little too easy. I think I'd go back to making the driver a bigger variable.
My extensive career, with its victories and defeats, championships, etc., has been well documented. My entire life has been focused on being the best race car driver I can be.
Experience is invaluable. I can't express enough how much experience in this sport has helped me as a driver.
It's hard to drive at the limit, but it's harder to know where the limits are.
As a driver, you always want to be in the car getting as much experience as possible; especially when there's something new like different tyres.
A racing driver has to be a good driver.
Nobody had race savvy like Al Unser in his prime.
I am a trained, professional stunt driver. I'm a great driver.
It's true that driving an F1 car in testing is helpful, it's not that you learn everything.
I am a very good driver - a defensive driver.
The car is a big part of it, but you need to be a good driver to get the equipment to the top. You need both.
