More quotes by Bernie Ecclestone
If we didn't have Nico [Rosberg] and Lewis [Hamilton] in those cars - there's one or two guys down the field who in those cars would have delivered the same.
Bernie Ecclestone
The banks don't have anything - no rights whatsoever. The banks are shareholders of SLEC, and SLEC has no rights. I am the CEO of Formula One Management and Formula One Administration, which runs the business in F1. From this point of view, I own F1.
Bernie Ecclestone
But when it comes to F1 I am a huge Lewis [Hamilton] fan because he is a super promoter of the sport. From a pure business aspect - sorry Nico if I have to say this - you are not so good for my business.
Bernie Ecclestone
You can't compare eras. But drivers of each era adapt to the needs and climate of their time. There are good and bad points to every era of the sport. I'm not really nostalgic about the past.
Bernie Ecclestone
You have to hope that your opponents are unlucky. Never only rely on your own luck.
Bernie Ecclestone
Generally I still believe that Lewis [Hamilton] is the best champion that we have had in a long, long time. He manages to get to all different walks of life: red carpet, fashion business, and music - you name it.
Bernie Ecclestone
I have no regrets about the amount of work I put into the sport. This is what I needed to do with my life.
Bernie Ecclestone
You need to have proper management if you're going to move forward.
Bernie Ecclestone
Nico [Rosberg] is not seeking the limelight as Lewis [Hamilton] does. Lewis wants to be famous.
Bernie Ecclestone
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. Because had they supplied the same engine as they had, you would have seen good racing, you would have seen Red Bull up there last year.
Bernie Ecclestone
I was always determined that races should begin on time and I never deviated from that policy.
Bernie Ecclestone
If I feel like something's gonna be right, I invest in it, whatever it is.
Bernie Ecclestone
When there is more money at stake it affects the atmosphere and things become more businesslike.
Bernie Ecclestone
I have 100 percent confidence in the German judicial system.
Bernie Ecclestone
I think in the end officials in each country's judicial system will do what they believe is right because if they do something bad to somebody it's on their conscience for the rest of their lives.
Bernie Ecclestone
I believe when you say you're going to start a race at 2 p.m. then you should stick to that and start the race at 2 p.m. There's no maybe, could be or should be. You start the race on time. It's very simple.
Bernie Ecclestone
I have always been happy to have daughters rather than sons. You never really can be mad at girls for anything in life.
Bernie Ecclestone
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.
Bernie Ecclestone
It'd be good for the world if [Donald Trump] won.
Bernie Ecclestone
I simply scraped together all my experience and put it into the sport.
