JPM - NOTHING TO LOSE

Post

I have heard of a quote by JPM, when asked by an interviewer if he was afraid of dying, JPM responded something of the likes of "Whats the worst that can happen? I die, and I'm willing to accept that." Does anyone know of this quote and its exact wording because I would like to use it in a report. Thanks in advance.

well I for one have not heard of it yet.
Is it recent or some time ago?

I know JPM isn't giving away so much lately.
Yesterday I was wondering where his wife is. She is hardly there while when he was driving for Williams she was always on his side.

Actually Sebastian is about ten months old :) And both Connie and Sebastian were present at Indianapolis, Spa and at the "Race of Stars" in Cartagena.

This comment he made was awhile ago. However, concerning his contract, he has at least a few more years, just signing with Mclaren recently. (last year right?)

Montoya's contract expires end of this season, and he is publicly looking around at other teams. He said he won't wait for Ron Dennis to make a decision.

Juan's contract is up at the end of this season. Mclaren have the right to an "option" in Montoya's contract. That option ended at the end of 2005. Based on all of the uncertainty surrounding Mclaren, JPM, and Kimi, one can see why they did not choose to take it. Mclaren can still make Juan an offer, but so can other teams, this is why he as been quoted as saying he's "looking for a ride". He contractually does not have one for 2007.

I heard that he turned down McLaren's offer of $72,000,000 over three years, but I'd ot heard that he'd broken off all negotiations.
