It's the engine. They should have never had that. The biggest mistake people have made... I say, people, because it wasn't just me alone, was not insisting Mercedes supply Red Bull an engine.

When people want to built new tracks, they want to look at Silverstone. We don't want it built like that. It's quite embarrassing.

[Donald] Trump, I think, is the sort of guy that if he maybe thought he'd made a little bit of a mistake, would find a way out, he wouldn't want to say, Well, that's what I've done and I'm sticking to it, and I don't give a damn. Which is what the other people in America would be like.

If somebody says, You like putting out fires, and I say, It's not a case of liking it, but I do put them out, and if there aren't fires left I make them, so I can put them out. It's what we do.
