JB:
But then again, you have the advantage in a racing car at the moment, you're in a better car so… It's pretty even.

LH:
OK, let's do it. It's a date.

Q: (Bob McKenzie – The Daily Express).
David, any regrets at this point, anything you look back on and wish that hadn't happened or you might have done better or whatever?

DC:
Well, I could go back through lots of different things and think I could have done that better, but that's not the way life works, is it? You make your choices at the time and going back to the '98 thing in Melbourne, that was obviously something disappointing because it was misunderstood, a team instruction, and then obviously changing places with Mika, that was obviously a fairly defining moment. But there you go, that's the journey of life. I don't think it would be half as fun if everything was perfect all the time. It's how you deal with those little hiccups and mistakes along the way which gives colour to one's life. I presume for you it was running round Silverstone naked!

Q: (Ian Stafford – The Mail on Sunday)/
Question for DC, going back on the main thrust of today's press conference, the triathlon. DC, you've always made a point of age is not an issue with you over the years, you've always slightly bridled when people have suggested that you're getting on it, so on that basis, why don't you make it a threesome?

DC:
Well, as you well know when I took you cycling and you puked up half way up the hill…

Q: (Ian Stafford – The Mail on Sunday).
I mean a threesome in the triathlon, David, by the way…

DC:
No, but I'm talking about the training that you did. I'm 37-years old, for xxx's sake. These are young kids.

Q: (Ian Stafford – The Mail on Sunday).
So, age is now an issue, at last.

DC:
Well, when I told you that I was 33. I'll go along and hold the water bottles. I won't enter. I think it's a great challenge between the two of them. I think it's fantastic that Lewis has taken the challenge in front of you all and it would only muddy the waters if I was there beating the two of them!
