An English summer's day is wonderful, but sometimes you have to look hard to find one!
As a driver, you want to race every lap possible, especially when you've got a good car.
Monaco is a very special event in its own right, and the atmosphere is quite crazy! As a driver, you have to stay calm and relaxed and try to do your job.
Monaco is quite a specialist track, and it is very difficult to say if a car will be suited to it or not. It's bumpy on the straights, and it's a very low-grip surface. All these things mean that you never know what to expect.
Montreal is different from Monaco, as there are some long straights and big braking moments.
I like Hockenheim because I've raced there quite a few times. In fact, one of my first single seater races was there in Formula Renault 1.6 in 2003.
The key is trying to go quick without killing your tyres.
I usually sleep ten to eight hours per night. I sometimes also have a nap in the afternoon.
I think I am disciplined when I need to be, and relax when I can.
I went to SG Formula and became Formula Renault 2.0 Champion. I went then to ART in Formula 3 and became Champion. Then I stayed with the team in GP2 Asia Series, and again, I became Champion. Then the first year of GP2 was really great. I was P4 at the end of the season, which was a fantastic result.
You can gain a lot of time from an aggressive strategy, but you can lose a lot of time from an aggressive strategy.
My wife is used to Formula One, and she understands the life.
