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.
Michael Schumacher
Image
If I didn't even stand a chance of winning races and competing for the title, I don't think I would be that interested in continuing my career.

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.
