Jean Alesi Net Worth

Jean Alesi's Quotes

• I have the French passport but my blood is Italian.
• These cars are quite funny to drive. There is lots of power with very good mechanical grip, but no real down-force or aerodynamics. That means the races are going to be really spectacular I think. It's the first time since karting, really, that I have driven a car that is so much fun in that way, for the driver to make all the difference.
• Schumacher probably said to himself: 'If the co-pilot can be up front, so can I.'
