Not a big Ferrari or Massa fan but I do appreciated his effort and he's so underated, even by his own team. I don't think Ferrari really appreciated Felipe, his role was more of a supporting driver, first for Micheal, then Kimi, and now Alonso. When Kimi arrived at Ferrari, Ferrari gave Kimi all the fanfare, spotlight, and parades, while keeping Massa lowkey. They repeated this with Alonso but Massa is been nothing but consistent for the team. Hamilton had a brilliant race at Malaysian but we are quick to not give Massa the same endorsement.

lol yeah because massa did sod all apart from sit behind a torro rosso until it pitted then he just drove as fast as he car could go.

Lewis overtook alot of cars.

Alonso was putting faster laps than him with a broken gearbox.

Massa doesn't deserve any endorsement when he is so blatantly being outperformed by Alonso.

Rising number one of Formula 1, Juan - Juan, one wonders should Juan only win one Formula 1 one year, would Juan have won that one in round one, Juan??

sorry but thats pointless speculation.

Lewis did overtake Algy

Massa could not.

like saying if it had rained just before lewis's pitstop he would of been 2nd or won.

Erm, Alonso drove from the back in Australia and had a gearbox problem today and in both races was easily up behind Massa. You really think that table is telling the whole story so far? I hope for your sake that you don't honestly think that

I think he's generally regarded as one of the best but not of the same caliber as his team mate, which is a fair assessment imo.

No I realise the table doesnt tell the whole story. Why was he at the back last week??
