MAKING OF A ROLE MODEL
PEDRO de la Rosa's career began not with the traditional proving ground of karting but a different form of four-wheeled drive competition. Although he wanted to race karts, his parents were reluctant to allow him to do so after his uncle had been killed in a road accident. Instead, when he was nine, he was presented with a radio control car and subsequently went on to become a European champion and finish runner-up in the world championship one year. "It actually helped my racing career because it was competition and you were fighting against other people", admits de la Rosa. "Those cars are very sensitive. I sepent days and days trying different tyres, different shocks, different engines and different exhaust pipes just to try and make the car quicker. "In some areas it is very similar to motor racing. I would have prefered to have gone karting. But it is what I had, it was good and it was fun." Although de la Rosa managed to persuade his parents to let him go karting, he was told that he could not rely on any financial or practical support. He believes it was the best thing that could have happened to him. "Since karting my father has only been to one or two races and said if I wanted to be a racing driver I would have to do it by myself. That is the best thing my father taught me, because I go to kart races and see fathers putting helmets on their sons who are crying. They are pushing them to become a racing driver. for me tha is bullshit because you have to want it yourself, not because of your father. "I had to fitht for it myself and tha is what I am proud of. That is how I am and I did not have my father pushing. I did it myself and okay, some things could have been better, but I am here. You just have to fight in life."
