The next stage of Sebastian Vettel Formula One career will be spent with Scuderia Ferrari and for Sebastian Vettel Scuderia Ferrari means the dream of a lifetime has come true, When I was a kid, Michael Schumacher in the red car was my greatest idol and now it 's an incredible honor to finally get the chance to drive a Ferrari.
The bottom line is what we do might not be the safest so there is always some risk but we are ready to take that into account because we love racing and we love motor sports and it is dangerous.
Whenever I have to do something, I try to minimise the time it takes me to do it. I just cannot wait.
It's very shocking for me to see pictures from my win here in 2008. I aged.
I have always watched the Race of Champions on TV every year and dreamed about participating one day. It's fantastic to be invited; I'm so happy. To represent Team Germany together with Michael Schumacher is a great honor.
I'm very proud to be the first winner of the Indian Grand Prix, but then on the other hand we recently lost two of our mates. I didn't know Dan Wheldon, but he was big in motorsport, and then this year I got to know Marco Simoncelli, so our thoughts are with them at the moment.
All these nice people saying I'm going to be world champion won't make me any faster, you have to believe it yourself.
If you are out in two races and someone else has a good couple of races, it could change. So all we do is try to get the optimum every time.
Teams like Ferrari, McLaren and Mercedes are going to be very, very motivated to go for the titles.
There are a few things that make me angry. Mostly things not going my way.
Driving at high speed where safe and legal is part of my life. As well as a higher top speed I wanted even better stability in my FX and that meant work on the aerodynamics.
Maybe Ferrari's mirrors are excellent & have HD resolution
We have reason to feel good, but it's also a threat to feel too good and I will pay attention that that doesn't happen.
I'm German but I didn't say that. I have no moustache
