Felipe Massa from Ferrari has vowed not to change his approach in racing. This year, he is in pursuit of his first drivers’ title.<\/p>\n
The Brazilian finished in fourth position last year, which is a very good performance, but compared to his teammate Kimi R\u00e4ikk\u00f6nen, he was a notch below, especially in the last races of the season.<\/p>\n
Massa won three races in 2007, but he believes he wasn’t lucky enough to be able to contend in the championship.<\/p>\n
\u00ab If we look at last year’s championship, at the Monza Grand Prix, I had seven more points than Kimi, and I was fighting as much as the other concerned drivers to win the ultimate title, \u00bb said Massa during testing in Valencia.<\/p>\n
But I had a problem in Monza and I lost all my chances. I don’t think my championship was bad. On the contrary, I think it was very good and I will try to do the same thing next year.<\/p>\n
\u00ab To win the championship you need a fast car, but you also have to be lucky. I think the latter was missing for me last year. So, I’m not going to change my approach for this year, \u00bb he continued.<\/p>\n
The Ferrari driver also admitted that he is satisfied with the progress of the F2008 in testing.<\/p>\n
\u00ab I think we made many improvements compared to last year’s car because we wanted more, \u00bb added the Brazilian.<\/p>\n
\u00ab But I think we are heading in the right direction. It is very important to cover a large number of kilometers with the two new cars. \u00bb<\/p>\n
\u00ab So, in the end, I am quite happy. Of course, we want more; we want to make the car even faster and even more consistent, but we are working even harder to seek improvement in all areas. \u00bb<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
