Scuderia Ferrari driver Felipe Massa declared at the Wroom ski event that he is already enjoying a great relationship with his new team-mate, Fernando Alonso. The Brazilian dismissed the rumours that there would be tension between him and the double World Champion and added that he already has a better band with Fernando than he had with Kimi Raikkonen.

Massa said: "Things have started extremely well. We've already started to speak a lot about the car and what to do to have a competitive car.

"I've spoken more to Fernando now than in three years with Kimi. Perhaps this was not difficult because Kimi of course did not like to speak much, but I also worked extremely well with Kimi, even without speaking. So it was fine. I think we can have a very good relationship and we can work extremely well together."

I find this kinda funny, how can you talk more to your new team mate in a matter of days than you did in 3 years with another? Kimi must be more than quite with just the media.

Fernando is just so outgoing and friendly, could talk anyone under the table

Keep your friends close...

I wonder when the fireworks will start, they're can't possibly make it through the entire season on good terms.

Ya I know keep your enemies closer. :rolleyes:

Funny enough I can see fireworks starting with Vettel/Webber before Alonso/Massa. We could even see the Button/Hamilton mix producing some displays. :twisted:

Have people seen/ read the bbc interviews? Massa and ALonso both seem to be taking pains to start of a a good footing.

First 100 pages are just pure gold, nothing short of amazing - for me. After that too much talk about all the races in 2007. If he would've waited until 2009, then he had a championship and also a year where he was on the back of the grid for the first half of the season.

Button/Hamilton POSSIBLY but Massa and Alonso have already had abit of a fight in 2007 which was far far worse than any of the Lewis on Alonso displays of that same year.

Webber and Vettel though - naaaaaaah.

Agreed. Vettel and Webber don't seem like the type. Button and Hamilton could have a few moments I suppose but I don't see it being anywhere near as bad as Hamilton and Alonso were in 2007.

Massa and Alonso are bound to have a tempestuous relationship, I'm just waiting for it to flare up and entertain me.
