Kimi Raikkonen: "Sometimes we push the car just for fun, and sometimes because we have to." David Coulthard: "Modern tracks created by Tilke and his design team is like watching a Batman movie. You already know what to expect." Damon Hill: "I've won 22 GP and 1 world champion title. I'm sorry if that is not good enough." Jacques Villeneuve: "Michael (Schumacher) is not a champion. He played too many dirty tricks and won't admit it afterwards." Flavio Briatore: "Racing now is decided by the marshals, not players." Do you have any interesting quotes to share?
Sebastian Vettel: "I wanted to become Michael Jackson when I was young. It was painful to realise that I didn’t have the voice…" Jim Clark: "One of the great things in motor racing is concentration. When I want to go faster I don't drive any faster, I just concentrate harder" James Hunt: "To hell with safety. All I want to do is race." Juan Manuel Fangio: "It was a great race. No one got killed."
Emerson Fittipaldi wins Zeltweg, 1972 Austrian GP,having on his back Denny Hulme for half the race: I run like an old maid being chased by satyr. "It was a great race. No one got killed." Perfect.
"Coming into the last part I ran a little bit wide and locked the rear end so I lost some time but I knew I was quick enough on the first part." - Kimi Raikkonen (worth the click)
Blatantly copied from same source as taufikp great quotes nonetheless. Kimi Raikkonen Do you have any ambitions outside racing? My main ambition at the moment, whether inside or outside racing, is to become Formula 1 World Champion. Dale Earnhardt Finishing races is important, but racing is more important. Niki Lauda Running an airline is a normal job. Racing is more. Juan Manuel Fangio I learned to approach racing like a game of billiards. If you bash the ball too hard, you get nowhere. As you handle the cue properly, you drive with more finesse. Jean Alesi (/any driver's reaction to a FIA rule change) I'm not sure they understand everything about racing cars. I am not sure that this is wise. Gilles Villeneuve If someone said to me that you can have three wishes, my first would have been to get into racing, my second to be in Formula 1, my third to drive for Ferrari. Ayrton Senna Racing, competing, it's in my blood. It's part of me, it's part of my life; I have been doing it all my life and it stands out above everything else. Murray Walker You might not think that's cricket, and it's not, it's motor racing.

"Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of your car. Oversteer is when you hit the wall with the back of the car. Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall. Torque is how far you take the wall with you." -Unknown
"There are only three sports: bullfighting, motor racing, and mountaineering; all the rest are merely games." - often attributed to Ernest Hemingway (but not confirmed it was him who said it.)

lol Kimi came up with some pearlers during his brush with NASCAR Trucks. My personal favourite was: "We're so ****ing ****, it's unbelievable."
