Felipe Massa believes Mercedes will be the team to beat once again in 2015 and the fight for second will be more intriguing.
Massa finished second fastest on day three of the second test in Barcelona. The Brazilian was two tenths slower than pace-setter Hamilton however the latter was on the slower softer tyres suggesting Mercedes have a significant performance advantage over the rest of the field once again.
Massa was delighted to have completed over 100 laps in the FW37 and cannot wait for the season to begin in Australia.
”We had another good day with over 100 laps completed. We reached the end of the programme in good time and the car has remained very reliable over all three tests. Our long runs look positive and the car remains consistent throughout the stints.
”We are not the only quick car on the track though and the fight behind Mercedes will be interesting. I now have to get ready for the first race of the season in Melbourne, which I am really looking forward to.”
