Red Bull is like a Formula Three team compared to Ferrari. With Ferrari there's an article every day in the Gazzetta dello Sport. It's a religion there and being a driver is not easy, if you look at when Ferrari executed the best, we go back to when it was Ross (Brawn) and Jean (Todt).

For me to train and get ready for racing, I can't just sit in the gym all the time and that's the way it is. Responsibility starts and stops with me. My main gig is grand prix driving, that's what I do and I need to keep that in the forefront of my mind.
