Giancarlo Fisichella Great Quotations

My motivation is very high. I am very pleased to be with a great team like Renault, the world champions. Also, I know I am driving a very quick car this year. My target is to fight for the championship, and I am optimistic I can do that.

I won last year and I have a great memory. I am optimistic for Sunday (TV, 10:30 p.m. ET Saturday).

It wasn't a great day for me, but we found a problem and now the car is OK.

I have a great feeling here, I won last year and I am hoping to do the same again.

At the end the car balance was quite good. On my second lap we were quicker but I made a couple of mistakes in the first part of the lap, but we have a great pace for the race. The target is to be first into the first corner.

It is simple for me: I am aiming for the world championship. This is a team that is defending the world title and working hard to win it again, so I am looking forward to a great season. There will be a good rivalry with Fernando. And from my point of view, I want to score points, win races and be in the fight for the championship.

It's a great answer after the last race when we made a big mistake. We know what the problem was and it should not happen again.

There's a fantastic atmosphere here for me. There is a great atmosphere in Australia, the people are really friendly and it's a nice place. The circuit is not the best circuit for me, but it's good. I've got a good feeling and I won last year so I have a good memory (of this circuit). Coming here and being the winner of the last race is fantastic for me so I am really looking forward to it and I am really optimistic for Sunday, again.
