That leads on fairly properly… When and the place did you first drive one thing? Alex Albon advised us in regards to the time he drove a bit go-kart round Disneyland and cried, so I don’t know in case you have the same story…
Disneyland… He cried, did he? I see Alex crying rather a lot… Wow… I do know what it’s! It was a lawnmower. I used to drive the lawnmower. I used to exit and lower the grass every single day, simply so I may drive the lawnmower! However there was like a weight restrict to begin the engine, so I needed to all the time go to the health club and get the 10kg dumbbells, which had been mainly a 3rd of my body weight again then. I needed to put them on the seat with me, then sit on them, to permit me to really begin it and drive it. So, it began on a lawnmower!
There’s a number of strain on this subsequent query… What number of occasions did it take you to go your driving check?
One! First time…
A number of drivers have mentioned that parallel parking caught them out…
I do attempt to keep away from that now, in any respect prices! Yeah… I really like a bit valet, you understand.
If you happen to may by no means sim race once more, or by no means play golf once more, what wouldn’t it be?
By no means sim race. I retired from sim racing in covid. I’ve not accomplished a sim race since!
One other golf one for you right here… If you happen to needed to enter a golf match with three different F1 drivers alongside you, who would they be and why?
Aww. I feel I’d have Carlos [Sainz]. I’ll have Max [Verstappen], only for the vibe. He received’t be allowed to carry a golf membership or something, however simply to have… He can get the drinks and that sort of factor. Who else? I feel Lance [Stroll] is fairly good at golf, Lance is excellent at golf, much like Carlos nearly. For a contest, these two, then Max can drive the golf buggy, caddie and that sort of factor.
