"This is Formula 1. In terms of numbers, this is not a fair sport. It happened to me when I won two championship titles. I beat Michael Schumacher, but my car was more reliable and powerful at the time, so you can't boast of such a package, because a racer will always appear on the covers. And it's the same with Lewis. To win more than 100 pole positions in Formula 1 is unimaginable. You have to have the best race car and pacts for many, many years," so Sleep.
