But to achieve what Michael has accomplished, which is the best he has accomplished so far, is entirely on a different level from what anyone else has achieved. It’s hard work and hard work and I think he’s well on his way and there will be more wins and more championships to be able to handle Michael. I think that the race can continue for a number of years, and this is ultimately proved by Kimi Raikkonen. Our job is to provide him with a good car. «
