Hungary we know it's a difficult track, it's one of the most physical tracks.
Robert Kubica
When you are a race driver you see things in the race driver mode.
I think it's impossible to drive a Formula One car with one hand.
I know my value. I don't have to look at lap times.
I have never been ready 100% even when I was racing in my gold times.
My aim, as always, is to deliver a good and consistent performance across the year. That is the goal for any driver.
Obviously when you join a team everything is new and you have to get to know the people and how they operate.
I will always give 100 percent and I am looking to finish in the points on a consistent basis.
The more experience you have, the more confidence you get and the more ready you are.
Regarding KERS, I have mixed feelings. As I am a tall and relatively heavy person I have disadvantages regarding the weight and consequently the weight distribution of the car. But on the other hand KERS could be a big advantage because of the boost.
The brain adapts very quickly. It is incredible how quickly we can adapt and what progress we can make in a very short time.
Of course I have to work harder because I have my limitations, and I have to prepare better and in a different way my body and mental strength, but that is part of my life.
I have my limitations which I never hide.
From a mental point of view, as I've had to rebuild my life from zero, it has been crucial I've never given up, that I've set achievable targets, not things that couldn't possibly be achieved.
There are some things I cannot do as I did before the accident. Trying to do them the same way was impossible, and I was getting frustrated. Then one day I said to myself that I had to relearn those things and do them in a different way and see what was possible, and how it could be achieved.
When you are a kid racing karts, you want to be an F1 driver.
You have to live for what is next, not from memories.
As a racing driver, everything you do is to get to Formula 1 and one day it stops.
I like to watch rallies. Every time I go, I park the car where the fans park - I don't have any special tickets or permission to go - and I walk six kilometers.
If I had to choose and had one week's holiday, I stay at home. But if I am at home and have nothing to do and have a choice, then I go rallying.
I am a big fan of racing.
There is nothing for granted in life. That's how it is.
I always enjoy street circuits, especially Monaco, and I've always gone well there.
If I have luck and keep working and the puzzle comes together, maybe one day I will drive an F1 car.
I spent many years in Italy, I've lived just 5km away from the track and the Monza atmosphere is very special.
You discover your brain is a powerful tool, something that is so powerful that sometimes you are surprised by the outcomes, how quickly it adapts to situations and how quickly you learn.
Formula One applies stresses to the mind and body that are very extreme.
When you have raced for 20 years and one day you have to stop, it's not easy, especially when you are hit with big problems.
I didn't know if I would get the chance to return to F1.
I have never been ready 100% even when I have been racing on my, let's say, gold times.
It will be a dream to come back to F1.
It's true that driving an F1 car in testing is helpful, it's not that you learn everything.
My story shows never say never.
I've become more sensitive, more open, which is not necessarily good in F1. But if you are able to control your emotions, I think it can be positive.
My accident - 15 centimetres right and nothing would have happened; 10 centimetres left and I would not be here.
Using KERS and the adjustable front wing is not particularly difficult. Once you've worked out where to use KERS to optimum effect at each track, and in which places you adjust the front wing, it happens pretty much automatically.
Often people forget motorsport is a sport.
When you do everything you can to be an F1 driver and suddenly it stops, it's not painful but it's definitely not something you were looking for.
KERS definitely helps on a straight when you want to overtake somebody who doesn't have the system.
For me, I have a chance to race in F1, a chance I did not think I would have.
I think there is only one person who can judge what I can do behind the steering wheel - and that's myself.
I had a great opportunity to be an F1 driver but, on the other hand, I have a great opportunity to become a rally driver with a very good programme.
Sometimes in Formula One the fans are too far away from what is going on the track.
Nothing is impossible.
I always said that I took a lot energy, a lot of time for me to recover and come back to the sport and join back in F1, but I would like to stay.
It's been a big challenge to get into F1.
There is no medicine maybe for everything, but there is a big medicine which is downforce in an F1 car.
The 2008 season was very long and extremely hard - probably the toughest of my career.
I don't think KERS will change the overall picture - the gaps between the teams won't get any bigger. And I don't expect more overtaking, especially not under braking. The braking distances of modern F1 cars are just too short to make a big difference.
Driving on gravel is very demanding. There are lots of movements on the steering wheel which put a lot of stress on my arm and my hand.
