A Quote by Felipe Massa
Every day you are in the media for good or for bad and sometimes this is not helping the driver or the team to control the driver in the best way as well. But Ferrari is Ferrari and the biggest, most famous team in Formula One, so you have a lot more pressure there than at another team.

I'm an off-road racecar driver. And I think every woman in my life has told me that's not a sensible hobby. But when I was growing, even more than I wanted to be funny, I wanted to be a racecar driver. That's all I thought about. I worked for a race team when I was 15 and I traveled with them.
It's good when you score goals because you are helping your team. For yourself as well, it's good, but the most important thing is the strength of the team.
A lot of people, a lot of players, come to the league knowing 'I can do that, I can do this, I can do a lot of stuff.' But at the end of the day, what the team needs from you is what makes sense for the team. You have to do what's best for the team.
It doesn't change much, my job from one team to the another. What I bring to the table. Helping the team be better and helping the young teams grow and help the talent already here. Get the best out of them.

I like working in a team, and at Ferrari there is always good cooperation.
