ENTREVISTAS PILOTOS ESPAÑOLES F1 Opciones

[AC99]

Me ha encantado esta entrevista; he de reconocer que escuchando o leyendo a Pedro ultimamente me está cambiando la percepción un poco negativa que tenía sobre si estaba haciendo lo correcto de cara al 2º asiento de McLaren y sobre que tal andaba de autoestima...le veo bien!!

Espero que consiga el volante y demuestre con todo un año de lo que es capaz.

Saludos, y gracias por la entrevista.

Pedro de la Rosa
If I had three wishes....
First and most important, that my family remains forever healthy. With good health, everything is possible. Second, that I could stop getting old. Third, that I would become one of the Vodafone McLaren Mercedes Race drivers

Which three things would you take to a remote island?
Why would I want to go to a remote island? Well, in that case, my electric toothbrush, my shaving machine and my aftershave.

If you weren’t a Formula 1 driver what would you be?
I would have finished my university studies in economics and would have probably gone to work in the family business.

What do you particularly love about Formula 1?
Simply, I love driving a Formula 1 car. The feeling of driving a Formula 1 car to the limit is something unique. There is nothing better than that.

What cars do you own, and why did you choose those particular cars?
I have a Mercedes-Benz R class 500, with a long wheelbase. It is a great family car, with three rows of seats and four-wheel drive. My two daughters can watch DVD's in the back seats so they call it “the car with the TV”.

What would be your dream holiday destination?
Without any doubt, Mallorca, Spain. My grandfather was from Mallorca and since I was born we have always gone there during August.

What do you do when you are not racing or testing?
When I am at home in Barcelona I divide the day in two. In the morning I do my training with my trainer who is based in Barcelona’s Olympic Area, 20 minutes from my home. In the afternoon I go to the office and do the typical administration work related to racing (interviews, signing photos, preparing the next trip…). From there, I try to pick up my daughters from school at 17:00, take them home and spend as much time as I can with them before they go to sleep. At night, when possible, going to the cinema with my wife Maria is a great plan.

What is your favourite race track?
Suzuka, because it is the most difficult and technical track I have ever driven. Also, the memory of my races in Formula 3, GT and F3000 there, make it even more special

Who is your hero?
Since I was a kid, my hero has been Superman because he can fly.

Fernando Alonso
If I had three wishes they would be....
My first wish would be to win the World Championship with Vodafone McLaren Mercedes, the second wish would be to do it again and my final wish would be to be World Champion with the team a third time.

Which three things would you take to a remote island?
That is difficult, I wouldn't take many things. We worry too much about personal items all the time so if I was on a desert island I would enjoy that and all I would need is some good company.

If you weren’t a racing driver what would you be?
I like all sports especially football and cycling so I would probably have pursued a career in either of these two sports.

What do you particularly love about Formula 1?
The cars; the speed of the cars; the way you need to drive these cars and the feelings that it gives you inside. It is just impossible to describe.

What cars do you own, and why did you choose those particular cars?
I have a Mercedes-Benz CLS for everyday use which is very nice. I also have a Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren because I just think that it is the most beautiful car ever.

What would be your dream holiday destination?
I like Japan and enjoy spending time in Tokyo.

What do you do when you are not racing or testing?
I am at home, really relaxed. We live in a world where we are always running from one place to another and doing things, so when I have some free time I like to spend the whole time at home. I don't go out for anything as I just want to relax.

What is your favourite race track?
I like Spa-Francorchamps because it has all types of corners and is a very technical and long track, which means over the course of one lap you feel a lot of things and this makes it very challenging and difficult.

Who is your hero?

I don't have any heroes but I am a big fan of Miguel Indurain; the famous Spanish cyclist, who has now retired.
