F1 testing: Massa fastest
Felipe Massa ended this week's test at Hockenheim with the fastest time on Thursday after taking over the testing duties from Kimi Raikkonen to finish Ferrari's testing program. And the Brazilian was the only driver to get under the one minute 15 seconds barriers as he set a best time of 1:14.989 seconds, a tad slower than Lewis Hamilton's time of 1:14.872 yesterday.
"It was a good day's work," said Massa. "We did a lot of kilometers and I have to say the car felt well balanced. This can only mean that we should also be competitive at this track, which is also the case for our main rivals."
