Montezemolo: Felipe still a number one
Ferrari Chairman Luca di Montezemolo has stated that Felipe Massa remains a ‘number one’ driver to the team, despite the events of this year’s German Grand Prix which involved the Brazilian having to yield the race lead to team-mate Fernando Alonso.
With the Italian squad electing to focus this year’s efforts on the Spaniard for victory in the Drivers’ Championship, question marks have been raised over Massa’s eternal status in the team although di Montezemolo’s remarks are clear.
“Felipe is and will always stay a number one driver for Ferrari,” he said, preparing to watch this weekend’s Japanese Grand Prix from the company’s base in Maranello.
“I expect the performances of a number one driver from him – both in the next four races and, with different tyres, next year.
“Those will be crucial to bring us wins next season and to take important points from our opponents in the battle for this World Championship.”
