I have what you might call the South Pole and the North Pole. I have my team and my work, which I do on one side, and I have my family and my home on the other side. Both have nothing really to do with each other.

More quotes by Michael Schumacher
Once something is a passion, the motivation is there.
Michael Schumacher
I retired simply because I didn't have the passion and motivation anymore, I was tired. At the time I thought, 'Well, I had a great time, there is the end.' At some moment there is the right time to call it an end.
Michael Schumacher
Let's put it this way, I like number seven.
Michael Schumacher
I always thought records were there to be broken.

Technology has certainly reduced performance differences among drivers. Whereas a talented driver could get a half-second out of every lap in the past, nowadays talent makes up for only about one or two tenths of a second. But the driver is still the key factor.
Michael Schumacher
I decided on a vision. I think I maybe join Toyota at the midpoint of a project, whose long-term goal is winning world championships. Also I have my big ambition, the drivers' world championship. That is not abandoned - entirely the opposite. I am young enough and motivated enough to make a new start in order to reach this goal.
Michael Schumacher

Michael Schumacher
Mika Hakkinen was the best opponent (I've had) in terms of his quality, but the biggest admiration I had for him was we had 100% fight on track but a totally disciplined life off track. We respected each other highly and let each other live quietly.
Michael Schumacher
If you do things to the limit, and don’t purposely go over that limit, then I think it’s fine to do whatever you want. So long as you enjoy it. That’s what’s important.
Michael Schumacher
I just want to be known as a very normal person and be treated as that and be able to walk down the street like anyone else.
Michael Schumacher
I cant really imagine life without Formula One.
Michael Schumacher
Just being a mediocre driver has never been my ambition. That's not my style.
Michael Schumacher
I have really enjoyed my time at Ferrari, not just because of the successes.
Michael Schumacher
The more precisely I can drive, the more I enjoy myself.
Michael Schumacher
When you are part of a community for 14 years, it inevitably shapes you. I will always have a part of Ferrari beside me a part of my heart will always be red.
Michael Schumacher
I don't feel like promising big things to my fans. I'm not thinking about victory at all. I'll do my best to get on the podium at least, although I must admit I feel fairly pessimistic.
Michael Schumacher
People get excited around me and behave differently than they would normally. I don't feel different from anyone else, except that I drive a racing car round in circles faster than somebody else.
