Massa and Schumacher to race in Brazil

Former team mates Felipe Massa and Michael Schumacher will join forces again this winter in the 'International Challenge of Go-Kart Champs', a kart race that attracts international top drivers to the Ingleses Kart Track, in Florianopolis (700 km South off São Paulo, Brazil), on November 24th and 25th.

Last year Felipe Massa also organised the race in Brazil and he will see the former F1 champion join him in November. "In fact, Michael should come for last year's race, but he was already committed with his children's vacation. In the beginning of this season, he asked me when it would happen this year. With the date confirmed, he said he would study his agenda. During the European GP, in Nürburgring, he told me I could count on him," explained Massa.

Other guests that will join Felipe Massa at the event are: Luca Badoer, Rubens Barrichello, Nelsinho Piquet and Vitantonio Liuzzi.
