W: In today’s Sporting World, we have Simon Webster. Welcome, Simon. Tell me, how do you feel about talking to older drivers?

M: They are happy to give advice if I need it. I always talk to drivers with more experience if I’m going to drive on a track I haven’t raced on before. I try to get as much information as possible, so I don’t make any mistakes.

W: And what’s the hardest thing for you about being a racing driver?

M: I find it very difficult to take time off. I do go away on holiday, probably not as often as I should. But the mistake I always make before a race is to push myself to keep training when I really should rest. When I train too much, I’m tired when the race actually starts.

W: A lot of small boys are interested in cars. How did you get interested?

M: My friends were all more interested in football but my dad did a bit of racing. I started going to race tracks with him. As soon as he let me try, he realised I would be good at it and wanted me to succeed. I know it’s really popular now with kids who watch it on TV but I never did.

W: Well, thank you very much for talking to us today.
