car difficult dreaming goal last race regular repeat season win winning won
It is very difficult to win a championship, and you need a lot of things around you to have the chance. Last year, I started the season dreaming of, maybe, winning one race and getting regular podiums, but we won the title. In 2006, I know we have a competitive car in the R26, so my only goal is to repeat the title.

It's a perfect start to the championship. Eight points is what I dreamed of before Bahrain. We'll be good everywhere.

To become part of a team with such a desire to succeed and passion for performance is a dream come true for any Formula One driver. Obviously I will be sad to leave Renault but sometimes possibilities come along which are just too good to miss.

All season has been a dream come true for Renault, even more because it is four years since Renault came into Formula One and now we are champions. It was not an easy job to do.

I'm surprised he was on the podium because he was starting from the back. I thought Jenson (Button) was third. I think he did a good from where he was starting.
ability both confident defend driver help helped plans sure team titles
I'm sure they'll help me like they've always helped me and that nothing will really change. I don't think it's in Renault's plans to help one driver more than the other, and I'm 100% confident with the team in our ability to defend both our titles this year.

I knew Juan Pablo was quicker, ... I knew I had no chance to fight because today was no risk. It was not easy, I was extremely careful in overtaking. Every one was a risky moment.
beat everybody extra maybe michael title wants year
Everybody wants to beat Michael on the track, ... In the first year he is not racing, maybe the title doesn't have the same feeling, so it was really an extra for me.
believe best came choose chosen contract family finished formula gave higher leave motivation possible season stage team time
Things change. It's a new story. Renault has been my family from the time I came into formula one. I gave them a lot and they gave me a lot. But I think I've finished a stage in my career. When you come to the end of a contract you can choose and I've chosen what I believe is the best team for my future. But it's important to leave in the best possible way. The motivation for this season is even higher because we have the No1 and No2 on the car.
extremely happy second win
I'm just extremely happy to win the championship with the second quickest car,
