A Quote by Bernie Ecclestone

The banks don't have anything - no rights whatsoever. The banks are shareholders of SLEC, and SLEC has no rights. I am the CEO of Formula One Management and Formula One Administration, which runs the business in F1. From this point of view, I own F1.

I think is very important that Formula E can apply its technology to everyday cars and everyday usage just as F1 is sort of a testing formula for improvement in road cars.

Albert II, Prince of Monaco

Formula One was just cool. I loved racing, all types of racing, but from a young age, Formula One was the noise and everything, and that's what I was drawn to. I already knew when I was younger, the coolest guys are in F1... not that NASCAR drivers aren't cool, but that was always what I had in my head!

Daniel Ricciardo

To be completely honest, I am obsessed with Formula 1 so in the off-season I would like to have just a few more races to still race in F1.

Charles Leclerc

We love Formula One and think Formula One's great. But we think Formula E is different. We would be making a big mistake if we tried to compete with Formula One and be similar to Formula One, we have to be radically different to Formula One to have a chance of survival. I don't mean survival by beating Formula One but co-existing complimentary to Formula One.

Richard Branson

If you punish the banks, all you are doing is reducing the banks' capital, which you want to increase, and punishing shareholders, who have done nothing wrong.

Nigel Lawson

IF is a very long word in Formula One; in fact, IF is F1 spelled backwards.

Murray Walker

Nobody says Nico Rosberg is only in F1 because his dad was a famous racing driver who funded his karting career and helped him get into F1. It s a bit unfair just to focus on the fact that my husband is in F1 and it's the only reason I'm in an F1 car.

Susie Wolff

When I started the business, only banks operated at airports, only banks issued travellers' cheques, only banks issued international payments, only banks serviced their own branch networks.

Lloyd Dorfman

I was always interested in maybe being in Formula E as I said many times when I was still racing in F1.

Felipe Massa

I think a lot of brands reach a point where they say, 'We kind of have a formula - we've got it made.' Our formula is there's no formula.

James Jebbia

I am a man of Brazil, of F1. My middle name needs to change to Rubens F1 Barrichello. I have no intention of saying goodbye.

Rubens Barrichello

I'm proud of my driver test. So many people were waiting for me to test and fail, so they could say that women would never be able to race in F1. I always view my time in F1 as before and after the test. Beforehand, I could sense everybody asking, 'What's she doing in the F1 paddock? Is she good enough?' After my test, that attitude changed.

Susie Wolff

The debut season in F1 is obviously very tough but it's been OK. The aim for me is to stay in Formula One for many years and that's what we're working at doing at the moment.

Marcus Ericsson

The human's being right to do as he pleases without interfering with someone else's rights is a formula defining rights prior to social legislation.

Lawrence Kohlberg

Lewis [Hamilton] is a hero in the UK. The British love Formula One. Sebastian (Vettel) is also not doing much for F1. People hardly recognize him on the street.

Bernie Ecclestone

It's been 23 years since the last Swede in Formula One, so for me to be the next F1 driver at all these races around the world has been amazing.
