10 Questions: Red Bull

1. Brian, what's the best advice you ever received and who was it from?

Vickers: Patience, from my dad, probably.

2. A.J., what's on the top of your "things to accomplish" list?

Allmendinger: Making some races right now. It's the only thing right now that I'm worried about.

3. Brian, who has made the most impact on your life?

Vickers: Definitely my parents.

A.J. Allmendinger
& Brian Vickers:
Red

4. A.J., who has made the most impact on your life?

Allmendiner: Probably the same answer as Brian gave, my parents. When you mortgage your house three different times to keep you going, and support you 100 percent, good and bad, you can't go wrong with that.

5. Brian, what was your first job?

Vickers: My first job was boxing parts in a warehouse.

6. A.J., what was your first car?

Allmendinger: It was a Ford Ranger truck. My grandfather sold it to me for $1. It didn't look pretty, but it ran. It never broke down on me.

7. Brian, which athlete outside of racing do you most admire?

Vickers: Lance Armstrong.

8. A.J., if you could choose someone to play you in a movie, who would it be?

Allmendinger: That's a good question. Brad Pitt, because my wife says I'm just as good-looking as he is.

9. Brian, if you could choose someone to play you in a movie, who would it be?

Vickers: Well, I've always liked Harrison Ford, but I think he's a bit too old to play me. OK, how about Matthew McConaughey. There you go.

10. A.J., what's one thing about Brian that most people don't know?

Allmendinger: To be able to work with him on the inside, the guy is really smart. I still can't believe he's two years younger than me, unfortunately. For his age, the knowledge that he takes in, that he already has and that he's always looking for is something that brings a lot to the team.
