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.
Ninety-nine percent of people who drive cars are not car experts.
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.
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.
