Alain Prost

“I was called the professor, but I think I was just a professional.”

“The secret is to have a car that is simple and easy to drive.”

“When I look fast, I'm not smooth and I am going slowly. And when I look slow, I am smooth and going fast.”

“To be a champion, you have to be yourself. Be who you are, not who people want you to be.”

“I always work the same way, starting from the smallest details. My priority is always the technical detail.”

“Ayrton has a problem, which is that he thinks he can't kill himself.”

“When you win a race you are on top of the world. It's the greatest feeling you can have.”

“You can't always be the best. You have to remember that.”

“Sometimes I think I am more famous for my rivalry with Ayrton Senna than for my four world titles.”

“Without going to what I think is my limit. I don't want to kill myself.”

“What is important is to have a positive mentality... you have to believe in yourself.”

“You want to have a good car, a good engine, a good team. It's a combination of things.”

“I have no problem with the people who work hard to get success. I like that.”

“I don't have any idols. I admire work, dedication and competence.”
