No Team Orders At Ferrari

No Team Orders At Ferrari

Felipe Massa was very pleased to be competitive with Michael Schumacher at the Malaysian Grand Prix. The young Brazilian also insists that there was absolutely no team orders from Ferrari to make him move over for Schumacher. This is what Massa had to say after his race at Sepang:

"It was a great race for me starting from the back to finish fifth," said Massa who failed to finish his first race for Ferrari in Bahrain. "The team didn't say anything to me over the radio so it was a normal fight for position with Michael and I'm happy with that.

I had a lot of fun and was able to keep Michael behind me," he added. "Had I started from a good position near the front of the grid I could definitely have fought for the podium."
