Le Mans' is the only racing movie that is totally realistic.
Any finish at Le Mans is great but every time I go to Le Mans my mission is to win.
I drove long distances like the 24 hours of Le Mans for years. But even this racing is now over. I retired.
I'm writing kid's books, I'm doing endurance racing with Le Mans and designing bikes. I've also got my own range of cycling clothing.
I never had any financial support or sponsors, and so I always had to, at every level, prove myself the hard way. I was five years in Japan before I got my debut at Le Mans. And I think this is a humble way to get through as a racing driver.
Winning Le Mans didn't change my career, but it definitely gave me a boost.
I've done the 24-hour race in Le Mans, which was a dream come true.
I'm definitely more one of the drivers who would want to do Daytona, Le Mans, and the Indy 500.
It's an amazing experience for me, coming from the F1 environment and to see a race like Le Mans.
When I arrived at Le Mans nobody knew me, I had to work hard to get into the first-team.
Yes, with Le Mans, obviously, the approach needs to be different. You have a race only once a year, so in the whole focus, the whole energy, you know that you cannot change the world and have a race two weeks later.
All the support and opportunity started and then Le Mans became the pipe dream, the thing to aim for, the end of the rainbow.
My proudest moments are beating Ferrari for the World Championship in 1965, and working with Ford to win Le Mans in 1966 and 1967.
I grew up in a village just outside Le Mans, so nature and fresh air are among the things I love the most.
One of the cool things about ski racing is there is never a perfect run so it's hard to be satisfied in that sense, you can always go that extra step, i don't think any of us have the realistic goal of having the perfect run. Ski racing is the most variable sport out there, conditions change run-to-run, we only get one chance at it and the margin for error is tiny.
My last race was at Le Mans in 2000, my first race was in 1959, so I dodged a lot of bullets along the way, I can tell you that.
