Felipe Massa

Latin spirit

Felipe Massa
Born: 25/4/81
Nationality: Brazilian
Team: Ferrari
First GP: Australia 2002
Wins: 7
2007 position: 4th
Previous teams: Sauber

Felipe Massa is expected to quietly slip into a supporting role to Kimi Raikkonen at Ferrari this season.

The Brazilian may not see it that way himself after pushing his team-mate close last year and seeing his title charge derailed only by circumstances.

But the fact remains that, after a slow start, Raikkonen increasingly became Ferrari's strongest performer in 2007.

And having primacy in the team by winning the title, Massa is likely to find Raikkonen will be tough to shift.
