During the conversation, the Silver Arrows supremo shared, “When we met each other 13 years ago, 14 years ago, I said to myself I need to go for that one because she’s the only one who can understand what I do.”
“You know, and she drives cars faster than I, [Me] and that’s so sexy. That’s a real USP.”
