Boyant Massa bullish for Monza

Felipe Massa is in bullish mood about his and Ferrari's chances in this weekend's Italian Grand Prix. The Brazilian is still on a high after dominating the Turkish Grand Prix and taking his maiden F1 victory.

"Life could not be much better than going to Monza for the Italian Grand Prix, driving for Ferrari, having won the last Grand Prix!" exclaimed Massa. "Turkey was an amazing weekend for me. It was a great feeling and a great moment for me and my career."

"Last week we had a very encouraging test at Monza," he added. "The package we have especially for this race was really working well in terms of efficiency and downforce and our lap times were consistently quick. I think we are going to be very strong in the race."
