Massa: Nurburgring should suit FerrariThursday 9th July 2009Although Felipe Massa believes the characteristics of the Nurburgring should suit Ferrari's F60, the Brazilian is refusing to make any predictions ahead of this weekend's German GP.
After a two-year absence, Formula One returns to the Nurburgring this weekend in what Massa is hoping could be a good race for himself and Ferrari.
But given the break and F1's new tyre regulations, Massa admits he has no clue how he will fare.
"I'm looking forward to getting behind the wheel of the F60 again," he said.
"The layout of this track should suit it better than the fast corners of Silverstone.
"A lot will depend on how we get the tyres to work and even if we have some new components that Kimi (Raikkonen) and I will be trying on Friday, it is impossible to say at this stage what we can expect from the weekend.
"The first half of the season was very hard to predict and I don't see why it should be any different as we go into the second half."
Massa, who has yet to visit the podium this season, has 16 points to his name, putting him sixth in the Drivers' Championship.
