Felipe Massa career
After a 2014 season that saw major improvement for the team, Felipe Massa will be looking for continued improvement in 2015 of podium finishes and the long awaited next race win.
Felipe Massa left Ferrari at the end of 2013 to make way for Kimi Raikkonen and moved to Williams where he had a good 2014 season in a much improved car and helped take Williams to third in the constructors championship.
Had his initial drives in F1 were with the Sauber team who were not one of the front running teams. He then moved to Ferrari, where he was under the shadow of Michael Schumacher. With Schumacher's retirement he had his opportunity to show how good he really is. However with Raikkonen winning the championship in 2007, he is again expected to be second driver. In 2008 he out performed Raikkonen and only missed winning the Drivers championship by 1 point. The 2009 car was not competative and a crash meant he missed the end of the season. He moved to Williams for the 2014 seasaon and the car became increasingly compettitive during the first half ofnthe season leading to him gaining Williams first pole position for a number of years in Austria.
