[Andrea De Cesaris is] the man who has won more Grands Prix than anybody else in the history of Grand Prix racing without actually winning one of them.

Murray Walker

Anything happens in Grand Prix racing, and it usually does.

Murray Walker

It's very, very special for me. This is where I've grown up, it's my home, and winning the Monaco Grand Prix is the highlight of any racing driver's career and for me a childhood dream. It being my home makes it all the more special, unbelievable.

Nico Rosberg

Driving a stock car does not require much handling ability, at least not as compared to Grand Prix racing, because the tracks are simple banked ovals and there is almost no shifting of gears. So, qualifying becomes a test of raw nerve - of how fast a man is willing to take a curve.

Tom Wolfe

The preparation, commitment and desire to win will be no less than the last time I drove a grand prix car in anger.

Nigel Mansell

Ukyo Katayama is undoubtedly the best Formula One driver that Grand Prix racing has ever produced

Murray Walker

Originally I was supposed to do Grand Prix, but I was under contract to 20th Century Fox at that time and Alex North was supposed to do Sand Pebbles, but he got sick, so Fox preempted me out of Grand Prix, and to my good fortune, I got to do Sand Pebbles. It was my first time working with Robert Wise and it was a great experience.

Jerry Goldsmith

Like you can't have a car that can take the kids to schools on Friday and win the grand prix on Saturday, you can't make a microscope that can do it all.

Eric Betzig

To have a home Grand Prix is awesome, so just to go there is already a buzz.

Daniel Ricciardo

That's the first time he had started from the front row in a Grand Prix, having done so in Canada earlier this year.

Murray Walker

Just take the lack of presence of F1 in the United States. In theory - and logically - you would have an East Coast Grand Prix, a West Coast Grand Prix, and I think you should have a street race in Detroit - it is still the motor capital of the US. You stay in the US for four weeks and could have two to three races, certainly two.

Martin Sorrell

I feel that I'm in good company behind the wheel of the Williams FW08C. It was the first F1 car to be driven by the great Ayrton Senna, and it won the 1983 Monaco Grand Prix.

Guy Martin

For me to train and get ready for racing, I can't just sit in the gym all the time and that's the way it is. Responsibility starts and stops with me. My main gig is grand prix driving, that's what I do and I need to keep that in the forefront of my mind.

Mark Webber

It was unbelievable: competing in my home town at a grand prix I was watching when I was three years old. It was massive and a dream come true.

Lance Stroll

We have had more sales for this year's grand prix than any other, and we have been helped in that by the fact that Jenson had 10 podiums last season and looks like a winner. It is good for British motor racing if he is there and doing well.
