Real and virtual tests for Felipe Massa

The Scuderia Ferrari preparative work with the start of the 2010 Championship in sight goes on. Only a couple of hours after the end of the tests on the track Felipe Massa was back in the cockpit of a Formula 1 single-seater.

No, not in an unforeseen test session, but in the Brazilian’s debut with the Ferrari simulator, which had been inaugurated last December just before Christmas Day.

"I was really impressed,” Felipe said. "This is much more realistic and it will be useful in the car’s development work and during the preparations for the races."
