Charlie Kimball Zitate – Sprüche auf Englisch mit Übersetzung

Zitat des Tages von Charlie Kimball:

Whenever I am not traveling during the winter, I am pushing hard in the gym. Even when I am traveling, I try to fit a workout in at the hotel. And if the hotel doesn't have a gym? You can get a good workout in your room with an exercise band and some imagination.

Gone are the days when you could lie on a beach between races and still be in good enough shape to compete.

I have to consider everything I eat; I consider every activity I do.

People ask how hard it can be sitting down for work during a 500-mile race? Well, without power steering or power brakes, holding onto 650 horses in a car that has nearly 3,000 pounds of downforce and can produce up to 4Gs vertically and laterally can be extremely tough - even sitting down.
