It's important for everyone to stand up for what they believe in.

Lewis Hamilton

I am a motorbike fanatic - always have been. It's actually what I wanted to do before I got into motor racing.

I really like to play to squash, because it's competitive, and I like basketball. I'm friends with a guy in L.A. called Andrew Bynum, who used to play for the L.A. Lakers NBA team. We play together sometimes.

When I was a kid, I used to play a game called 'Grand Prix Two.' Interlagos was always the first race of the season on that, and I never really got much past the second race. I would always restart the season, so I always seemed to be doing Interlagos - it was a real pain!

I hate losing. It doesn't matter if it's racing or playing Ping-Pong - I hate it.

Lewis Hamilton

I train to quite an intense level because Formula 1 is so physical - the G-forces, the demands on your body. Your heart rate is 150, 160 through the whole race. On qualifying lap, your heart rate can be up to 180, 190, under tough conditions.

Lewis Hamilton

I love my ink. They all have a meaning. I'm very strong in my faith, so I wanted to have some religious images. I've got Pieta, a Michelangelo sculpture of Mary holding Jesus after he came off the cross, on my shoulder. A sacred heart on my arm. Musical notes because I love music. The compass on my chest is there because church is my compass.

If I'd won every single race and got pole everywhere, that would just be boring. It would suck. Where's the fun in that?

Lewis Hamilton

I'm happy to race against anyone.
