Belgian GP - Sunday - Quote

Felipe Massa (4th): “I think this is a positive result and, given the way the race went and the accidents that put Vettel and Button out of the game, we can even say we were a bit lucky. This weekend, Red Bull and McLaren were stronger than us, but we worked well as a team, making the right choices before and during the race. Our set-up was a bit more efficient in the dry, while we suffered a bit in the wet, especially in the middle sector, while in the first two we were reasonably competitive. Now we go to Monza, for our home race: we hope to do well at a track where speed and stability under braking count for a lot. We will continue to fight right to the end, even if the situation in the championship is ever more compromised.”

Belgian GP - Saturday - Quote

Felipe Massa (6th - 1m 46.314s): “Definitely a difficult qualifying. Already this morning, we had seen that the McLarens and Red Bulls were quicker than us and they confirmed that this afternoon, when we had a few difficulties, failing to get the result we were expecting: which means we will be trying to improve our positions tomorrow in the race. As usually happens here in Belgium, you can predict that the changeable weather might play a crucial role: it will be vital to manage the situation as well as possible. On my first run in Q3 I got a good lap, but maybe it could have been a couple of tenths quicker, while on the second one, I immediately had rain at Turn 1 and I locked the wheels and I decided to pit without completing the lap, because I would not have been able to improve my lap time. If we have a track that is only slightly damp but not too wet, it could be a problem because the rain tyres get destroyed very quickly and it will be necessary to manage them very carefully.”

Belgian GP - Massa: “A competitive car”

“I am very happy to be back racing at this track, having been forced to miss it last year: I love driving here. From what we could understand on a day like this, the car seems reasonably competitive and that was particularly true on the rain tyres. However, it is only Friday, so we will have to wait to see how the Red Bulls go, given that so far they have proved to be the quickest cars, as demonstrated in qualifying.

We had so many things to test today, which explains a few slow laps this afternoon. On the intermediate tyres I immediately had good grip, but even on slicks the situation was not that bad. On the final lap, the only one on the soft tyres, I made a mistake, but the car felt good: obviously there is room for improvement and that is what we will try and achieve tomorrow.”

Massa: “pushing hard without giving up”

After jokingly apologising to the journalists that he had nothing exciting to tell them about his holiday, as he spent it quietly at home with the family, it was soon business as usual, when Felipe Massa faced the media in a rather damp Spa paddock, for the first time since Sunday in Budapest. And the first question was blunt and to the point: with seven races to go, had he met the targets he had set himself at the beginning of the year? “No, I have not met the goals I set myself at the start of the season,” was the Brazilian’s honest reply. “Only if you are leading the championship can you say yes. If that had been the case, we could say we need to carry on the same way for the remaining races. But we are not leading either championship, Drivers’ or Constructors’ although we are still pushing hard without giving up at all.

Red Bull has been the strongest team so far at every race, winning more races and taking more poles. McLaren has also done a good job, especially in the first half of the season and we are in a situation where it is much easier for us to fight McLaren than Red Bull. Anyway, we are doing everything we can to keep on fighting everyone on track and improving the car, trying to beat all the other cars on track. That has to be our goal for the rest of the season.” As to the impossible question regarding the Scuderia’s chances of winning the Constructors’ title, Felipe had this to say: “Until you still have a chance mathematically, winning the championship is still a possibility.

In practical terms, we have to continue developing the car, especially trying to make it quicker in Qualifying, which is so important for the rest of the weekend.” And a final word on prospects for Sunday’s Belgian Grand Prix. “I love this track very much, as do all the drivers I think,” said Felipe. “I am aiming to have a good weekend and a great race, but so many things can happen here, much of it linked to the weather as there is always a chance of rain creating some unusual situation. I hope the modifications we have brought to the car for here, especially the revised diffuser, will bring us some increased downforce.”
