  • Intro:

    Ferrari's Felipe Massa has been speaking of his team's hopes for this weekend's Hungarian Grand Prix in Budapest.

    Script:

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Felipe Massa, Ferrari driver:
    (About the 2013 Ferrari F1 car).
    "Well, for sure, the characteristic of our car, (people) saying that our cannot be in the top level to fight for victory in this track. I don't think it's really that situation. We also had other tracks where everybody was expecting our car to be strong and it was not. So I think important to get there, to try to understand everything around the car. I think we can be competitive, the temperature can help us. So I hope it will be different than what people expect and we can be very competitive there."

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Felipe Massa, Ferrari driver:
    (About the Hungaroring).
    "Well, it's a very downforce circuit, the maximum downforce is possible in the car. The speed on the straight is not very important in this circuit so it's important to have a very stable car. A very good car in terms of not degrading the tyres, so using the tyres in a good way. So I think that can help a lot for you (the driver) for your car on the track and so I think that's the most important characteristic."
