Felipe Massa

[Mark Birney]

The media made a bif kufuffel about the whole eye thing. They had no idea at the time, but it seeems to be ok now

 

[Rhys Gardiner]

Great to hear that he's alright. The injury he suffered must have been horrendous. Speaking of which, I found an interesting article on F1 Fanatic putting Massa's crash into perspective.

Shows you how lucky he was...

He could be walking out of hospital in 10 days if he keeps up this progress.

 

[Matthew Gutteridge]

Yep, but I'm fairly confident he won't be in a Ferrari again this season

 

[Mark Birney]

He is able to use his left eye, and is apparently due to leave intensive care today.

All promising.

 

[Bart Snijders]

Doctors say Massa will race again...

According to his personal doctor Massa will race again :

[Omer Said]

Really happy to see latest great news. Keep up the progress MASSA! You can do it ! :thumb:

 

[Bram Hengeveld]

Q. How do you feel? What do you remember from the accident?

Felipe Massa: "It is sort of a strange feeling. I know exactly what happened, that a spring came off Rubens' car and hit me on the helmet. I know that something happened to me, but I didn't feel anything when it happened. They told me that I lost consciousness at the moment of the spring's impact on my helmet and I ran into the barriers, then I woke up in hospital two days later.
"I don't remember anything and that's why what the doctors did had to be explained to me. When I saw Rob (Smedley, his race engineer), he asked me if I remembered Rubens, but the last thing I remembered was when I was behind him at the end of my fast lap in Q2, and than it's blank. It's difficult to explain. I'm feeling much better now and I want to recover as soon as possible to get back behind the wheel of a Ferrari."

Added Autosports report of Massa's Rant.

 

[Péter Bártfai]

I agree with Rosberg that he should have won the GP because Renault cheated (even if he was also a bit lucky with that).
But with this... this is a really disappointing comment by Massa... it was purely the pit-crew's fault there in Singapore! Piquet's incident had nothing to do with it! I understand he was very unlucky last year, but this is just not right!

 

[Richard Kay]

Was there a veiled dig at Massa's moaning with the the comment "back to his usual self" in Lewis's response?

 

[Ben Tusting]

Absolute bolocks, if this happens they should make damon hill and Nigel mansell champions

 

[David Buxton]

Make anyone champion as long as it's not Lewis :becky:

 

[Mike Hill]

Massa want to take a long good hard look in the mirror and ...... Hmm, maybe not eh!

 

[Damian Henderson]

Absolute bolocks, if this happens they should make damon hill and Nigel mansell champions

Exactly.

Not to mention the points they took away from Lewis that season unfairly, but lets not go there.
