Q: When you look back over 15 years in Formula One have there been times you felt uncomfortable?

FM: Probably in my last year with Ferrari. I was tired and not motivated. In that situation I thought ‘Maybe I am too nice!’ I know that I get a lot of compensation for this in many other areas in life – but probably not necessarily in F1. Maybe I also missed some opportunities, as in this sport you need to be aggressive – but then this wouldn’t have been me any longer. And I definitely was never a ‘Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde’ kind of person! (laughs)

Ugh this really got me >< I really hope Felipe decides to talk more about some of this shit when he’s retired and away from the paddock. But like he says, maybe he’s just too nice a guy to dish some proper dirt in which case hopefully we’ll get it from Rob instead
