More quotes by Bernie Ecclestone
When there is more money at stake it affects the atmosphere and things become more businesslike.
Bernie Ecclestone
Take away Toto Wolff's Mercedes shirt and send Sebastian [Vettel] down a street - nobody would recognize him.
Bernie Ecclestone
Before they go to the race, people want to think four or five guys could win, but now... Normally you'd say, One of those two, and I think it's going to be Lewis [Hamiltom], because that's what had been proved up to now - thank God that Nico [Rosberg] has won some races.
Bernie Ecclestone
I think I would find it easier to talk with Nico [Rosenberg] than Lewis [Hamilton], as Lewis is into things that are very distant to me.
Bernie Ecclestone
I think we don't need some people in Brussels trying to run countries that are some distance apart, who don't speak the same language, don't eat the same food. There's a bit of difference between, Holland, if you like, and Italy.
Bernie Ecclestone

Bernie Ecclestone
You can't make decisions if there are no charges or issues to deal with. So it's quite normal to wait until there is some reason to react.
Bernie Ecclestone
I'd rather get to the 70-year-old guy who's got plenty of cash.
Bernie Ecclestone
[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.
Bernie Ecclestone
I was always determined that races should begin on time and I never deviated from that policy.
Bernie Ecclestone
[Maurizio Arrivabene is quite a character] but only for himself and not for Formula One.
Bernie Ecclestone
I have a lot of faith in justice systems around the world even though there were cases in the past where that faith wasn't justified in some countries.
Bernie Ecclestone
If you're going to take the attitude, I don't think it will work, you will never do anything.
Bernie Ecclestone
If I feel like something's gonna be right, I invest in it, whatever it is.
Bernie Ecclestone
