I'd rather the handshake for somebody that I can trust than a contract. Because you can read the bloody contract - perhaps if you made a little bit of a mistake writing it - in a way to suit you.

Take away Toto Wolff's Mercedes shirt and send Sebastian [Vettel] down a street - nobody would recognize him.
Bernie Ecclestone
[Maurizio Arrivabene is quite a character] but only for himself and not for Formula One.

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
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.

[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
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
It'd be good for the world if [Donald Trump] won.
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
I'd rather get to the 70-year-old guy who's got plenty of cash.
Bernie Ecclestone
You're born with certain gifts and you use them as best you can in life. You begin to learn and recognize that you have certain skills and aptitudes that you apply and use them to carry you forward.
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
As the cancellation of the German Grand Prix indicates, Germany is a terrible market for Formula One.
Bernie Ecclestone
I simply scraped together all my experience and put it into the sport.
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.
