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.

More quotes by Bernie Ecclestone
I can't remember a single occasion when I have been kind to a journalist.
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
I'd rather get to the 70-year-old guy who's got plenty of cash.
Bernie Ecclestone
I simply scraped together all my experience and put it into the sport.
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
If you're going to take the attitude, I don't think it will work, you will never do anything.

There is no recipe for that. Both [Nico Rosenberg and Lewis Hamilton] are very likely equally talented in the car, so the fight between the two happens between the ears - in the head.
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
[Maurizio Arrivabene is quite a character] but only for himself and not for Formula One.

Bernie Ecclestone
Women should be all dressed in white like all the other domestic appliances.

Bernie Ecclestone
I have 100 percent confidence in the German judicial system.
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
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
When there is more money at stake it affects the atmosphere and things become more businesslike.
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
My daughters have strong personalities. I'm close to them but they don't really need me to advise them on how to manage their lives and they don't ask me to do that.
Bernie Ecclestone
I am happy that we have somebody like Lewis [Hamilton]. I also couldn't be like Lewis. I don't like gold jewelry!
Bernie Ecclestone
Each new deal is another opportunity.
