Matching Daniel Ricciardo in the same car and twice finishing 6th
in a Grand Prix is a Formula 1 record to be proud of. But looking
back at his three seasons driving for midfield team Scuderia Toro
Rosso, Jean-Eric Vergne thinks he could – and should – have done
better. In an honest and unflinchingly self-critical interview,
Vergne tells Tom Clarkson how his mentality and even his physical
size negatively affected his F1 career, and recalls the many
things he wishes had turned out differently. He tells the
astonishing inside story of his 2014 F1 exit, and reveals the
unfortunate timing, bad luck and driver moves which edged him out
of the sport. JEV also explains how Lewis Hamilton inspired him
to kickstart his own racing career to win championships in
Formula E and why he wants to face new challenges at Le
Mans.
