By being a racing driver you are under risk all the time. By being a racing driver means you are racing with other people. And if you no longer go for a gap that exists, you are no longer a racing driver because we are competing, we are competing to win.

Sure, it's impossible to get it right all the time. But I race designed to win, as long as I feel I'm doing it right.
