“I saw him in the paddock and he always said ‘yeah, we can sit down and talk

“So these kind of people I don’t really respect. I respect him as a sportsman
here, but in private he’s not on my level and I don’t need to waste time

“I’m happy I realised what kind of a person he is.
“I have good friends, people I can learn from and this is the most important.

“On the circuit, this is business. He’s a great racing driver but we haven’t
really spoken about it.”
