ferrari future interested next race team win
I don't see any future at Ferrari for me. To be honest, I've never really been interested in that team at all. I want to race for a team that can win races, and that is Renault this year, but McLaren next year.
coming cross enjoy laps last line opposite people team victory
The last 10 laps went really slowly. I just wanted to cross the line and enjoy the victory with the team and the grandstand opposite the pits where most of the people were coming from the Renault factory.

The motivation is even higher than ever this year because we have the number one and two in the team and all the mechanics and engineers are working with much more interest than last year.

For the team it has been a fantastic season. It was not crucial but quite important for the team for the motivation for next year.
challenge change finding lap last occasions opportunity quick strategy teams three
For the drivers, it will not change too much. I think the challenge is more for the teams and engineers, finding the right strategy and working very quickly. Last year, we had one opportunity for a quick lap. Now, we have at least three occasions when we have to set a lap time.

It was the perfect way to begin the year. We had a very exciting race for the spectators. As we thought from testing, there are four teams fighting to win at any type of circuit - Honda, McLaren, Ferrari and Renault. We can all win races, so it will be a fun time in the coming weeks.

And then from 2003 to now I developed myself, my driving style, and I grew up with the team to be in this position.

The new rules don't help anyone. Everyone has to build a new engine. At the end of the day, the same 3-4 teams will be at the top.
ability both confident defend driver help helped plans sure team titles
I'm sure they'll help me like they've always helped me and that nothing will really change. I don't think it's in Renault's plans to help one driver more than the other, and I'm 100% confident with the team in our ability to defend both our titles this year.

Honda, Ferrari, McLaren and Renault have been the four big teams in winter testing, and now we must check in the opening races.

For me it's the perfect start to the championship. Eighteen points in two races is what I dreamed of before Bahrain.

This is a fantastic feeling, ... I didn't think anything could equal winning the Drivers' Championship, but seeing our people celebrating, it's just as good! I am really so happy today.

I have scored 18 points in two races, which is a fantastic start to the season. I am aiming to win in Melbourne.

I have found a perfect place for me in England, and I enjoy my time there. The factory is close and the airports are close so I can go anywhere and from my little town in Spain it was impossible. My life is much more comfortable now.
