Felipe Massa (born 25 April 1981 in São Paulo, Brazil) is a Brazilian professional racing driver.

Formula One

2002: Sauber

Massa made his Formula One debut in 2002 for Sauber, but his two outings didn't really show much promise. Massa was then promptly demoted to test driver, and he was replaced by Sebastién Bourdais for the rest of the season.

Massa then became Ferrari's tester for 2003 and 2004 seasons, before returning to the Formula One grid the following season.

2013-2015: Mercedes

Massa made his return in 2013, signing a three year contract with Mercedes. Massa scored a win towards the end of his first season back at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.

Massa's second season back was far better, taking four wins on his way to fifth in the championship.

His final season back would yield but a single podium, a second place in Germany.
