I have so much music to release, but I'm meticulous. I'm like, You've got to redo that part, redo that part. And people are like, Just forget that and go ahead with it. But it's all about perfection, about trying to make it as good as you can.

I was born to race and to win.

My saying is We win and lose together. I think that really does apply to both my fans, family and the team.

I've tried lots with my hair. Obviously I used to have it as a number one all over, super easy, but then I started to grow it out. I had an afro and then I got rid of the sides.

I grew up going to the store, seeing the products [of L'Oréal ], seeing the commercials and the ambassadors. I never in a million years thought I'd be associated with them.

I can't go to the cinema. I go to the bathroom in a petrol station and people come in there for autographs. It's tough but I knew that was going to be the case.

I have no fear of death, so I don't think about it. I love the adrenalin kick that danger brings. Others get their kicks bungee jumping from tall buildings. I'm very, very competitive. I want to be the best at everything I do. It's not driving - it's everything - it might be playing my guitar, I try to be the best at it as I possibly can.

What people tend to forget is the journey that I had getting to Formula One. There were plenty of years where I had to learn about losing and having bad races.
Lewis Hamilton
Image
Now each race is different every time because it's a different journey to get to it - the difficulties you faced getting the car into that position. I manage myself. I chose my team myself. So there's a huge satisfaction for me.

Nothing can really prepare you for when you get in the Formula One car. Knowing that you're driving a multimillion-dollar car, and if you crash it it's going to cost a lot of money, and they might not give you another chance, is scary.

There's so much more power, so you're short-shifting all the way down into fifth, sixth, seventh before you can get the full throttle. But great fun otherwise.

Im an extremist so Im either hated or loved. I think its down to when I first got to Formula One not always knowing what I was saying, saying things that mean one thing but people were taking the other way and then people dont forget.

I enjoy trying to develop a car and Mercedes are one of the biggest car manufacturers in the world.

My Bridgestone tire blows out on a day that Ferrari wins? Smells too convienent to me.

It was my 44th win [in Monaco] 44 is my race number and it's been my number since I was 8. And it's my family's number as well. So it was a special day, for sure.

Obviously I am not happy but they can throw what they want at me, I will come back stronger.

You just need to be accepted for who you are and be proud of who you are and that is what I'm trying to do.

I take as much time as I need. I want to be fresh and smelling good.
