"I go to see grand prix every year, and I watch every race on TV for sure. I probably go to three or four CART races and three or four Formula One races"
About this Quote
The detail matters. “For sure” is conversational, not ceremonial. It flattens the hierarchy between icon and audience: he watches the way everyone else watches, through a screen, week after week. That’s a savvy kind of humility, especially in a sport where celebrity can calcify into brand management. He’s also drawing a bridge between CART and Formula One, which reads like an argument disguised as a schedule. In the era when F1 carried the global prestige and CART held a distinctly American identity, listing both on equal terms signals pluralism - an insider insisting the racing world is bigger than one gilded paddock.
Contextually, it’s a veteran’s claim to relevance. Attendance is credibility in motorsport, a proof of continued appetite and authority. Fittipaldi isn’t selling nostalgia; he’s signaling that he still keeps up, still cares, still belongs.
