Felipe Massa said he was happy to be teaming up with Kimi Raikkonen in 2007 and that he'd much prefer to have a fast team mate that might occasionally beat him as opposed to a slow one.
"I have always had good team-mates on the squad and the best thing is to have a fast team-mate to be able to compare myself to," Massa said as Ferrari unveiled its 2007 car at Maranello. "I have learned a lot from Michael and above all during the second part of the year I grew enormously. On the other hand it is nice to work with Kimi; we will work together to make the car victorious."
"We still have to get to know each other, because we just met last week: He looks like someone with whom I can work very well," he added. "To come to a new team is never easy, because you need to build confidence, but here I was immediately able to arrive at a high level of competitiveness. It is just a matter of wanting and lots of motivation to work together, and this is what Kimi is doing."
