Massa aims to make an impact
Felipe Massa's father owns a small plastics factory in Sao Paulo, making bumpers for trucks.
They might have come in handy a month or two ago, when Brazil's latest and youngest Formula One recruit gave his Sauber mechanics a headache with frequent crashes and scrapes in testing.
But the 20-year-old, from a city where driving is considered a contact sport and the spirit of Ayrton Senna is evident on every freeway, has made a more positive impact since his March 3 debut in Australia.
Massa will now start his home Grand Prix on Sunday as the only Brazilian -- of three on the grid including Ferrari's Rubens Barrichello -- to have scored a point so far this season.
Despite being slower than German team mate Nick Heidfeld, he finished sixth in Malaysia as Barrichello and others failed to last the distance.
The youngster also got noticed in the season-opening Melbourne race when he qualified ahead of Heidfeld, fifth at Sepang last weekend, in a rain-hit session.
"I think he's a future champion," retired French veteran Jean Alesi, who also raced for Sauber in a long and varied career, said before that first race. "I've watched him testing...and he's mad, fast and clever."
LAST TRIUMPH
Massa returns to his birthplace and the Interlagos circuit, once a temple to Senna but without a local winner since the late triple champion's last triumph there in 1993, hoping for more points.
Yet Massa is a man of a very different era to Senna, whose grave in the suburb of Morumbi is still an object of pilgrimage to Formula One fans.
Massa has taken on Senna's fitness trainer but, consistent with his youth and status as the leading light of a new generation, looks elsewhere for inspiration.
"Senna of course is the hero for everybody, you know, but when he died I was so young," the Brazilian said in an interview that might sound sacrilegious to some compatriots.
"I followed Michael (Schumacher) much more than Senna. I think that Michael is the best driver in the world, he is really incredible."
Massa also shares a favourite circuit with Ferrari's four times champion Schumacher.
"Interlagos is my home race and its going to be amazing to race there, but my favourite track is Spa," he said.
SCHOOLWORK OBSTACLE
Like many modern Formula One racers, Massa started out in karting at an early age -- while also driving his father's car in Sao Paulo long before legally allowed -- but found his schoolwork represented an obstacle:
"I was third in my first race (in the Paulista championship) but after that I didn't do three races because I was not doing well in school and my father took me out."
School, despite his mother's attempts to push him to university, lost in the end and he abandoned his marketing studies for full time racing in Europe.
Unlike some other compatriots, backed by family wealth, Massa said money was a problem.
"My father has a little plastics factory. He makes truck bumpers and plastic seats for buses but he is not rich," declared the slight Brazilian.
"I always had a big problem about budgets to race, a little sponsor here and friends.
"When I came to Europe for Formula Renault I came to do just six races in the Italian championship because that was all my budget.
"The championship is 10 races and I won my first two. Then the team helped me do all the championship and also the European championship."
KIMI COMPARISONS
Massa won both titles and never looked back, earning a test at Sauber after Finland's Kimi Raikkonen moved on to McLaren.
By all accounts, the results were sensational and Peter Sauber wasted no time in signing up a talent who had already been linked to Ferrari and had aroused interest in some other teams.
Comparisons with Raikkonen, who scored a point on his debut last year and stood out for his coolness, are inevitable but Massa tries to ignore them.
"I don't have Kimi in my mind," he said "But of course he was very good last year and he did a very good job. I would like to do the same."
The Brazilian has moved to Switzerland to be closer to the team and won more friends when he sent a Christmas card to everyone at the factory.
He has settled in well at Hinwil, even if driving in Switzerland lacks the thrill of Brazil.
"Driving in Sao Paulo is nice because there is that little bit of adrenalin," he said with a smile. Sunday's race should bring a whole lot more.
Massa，撞出個未來！
Felipe Massa的父親在聖保羅擁有壹間小塑料廠，生產卡車緩沖器。
這些小東西從壹兩個月以前開始就更有用處了，因為F1中最年輕的巴西菜鳥，用層出不窮的碰撞和花樣翻新的刮蹭讓索伯的技師們傷透了腦筋。
但這位20歲的年輕人來自壹個賽車運動像傳染病壹樣流竄的城市，阿亞頓-塞納的精神是每條高速公路的行進準則，而他在3月3號的澳洲首秀讓這裏的賽車激情更加火熱。
Massa即將在周日開始首次主場作戰了，他可是三個巴西車手裏唯壹帶著積分回來的，而法拉利的Rubens仍然兩手空空。
雖然比他的德國隊友Nick要慢，但他還是在馬來西亞拿到了第六，Barrichello和其他壹些車手卻在壹場沒有完成比賽。
這位新手因傑出的排位賽而引人註意。他在墨爾本排在了隊友Heidfeld之前，而在雪邦雨站也拿到了第五位的發車成績。
“我想他是未來的冠軍，”法國退役老兵讓-阿萊西在Felipe的首秀前說，他在索伯度過了漫長而多彩的壹段時光，“我看過他的測試，他是個瘋子，快而聰明。”
上壹次勝利
Massa回到了他的出生地，來到了因特拉格斯，這座塞納聖殿從這位三冠王在1993年的勝利之後，在沒等到壹個巴西冠軍的到來，Massa希望他能得到更多的分數。
然而Massa是壹個與塞納完全不同的人，車神那位於Morumbi市郊的墳墓仍然是F1車迷旅程中的重要壹站。
而Massa年輕，代表著新壹代的思想，盡管他聘請了車神的健康訓練師，但他仍然在別人身上找到了更好的精神偶像。
“當然，對每個人來說，塞納都是英雄，但他死的時候我還很小，”巴西小夥子的這段訪問在他的同胞聽來幾乎是褻瀆神靈。
“我對Michael的崇拜超過了對塞納的崇敬，我想Michael才是世界上最優秀的車手，他簡直不可思議。”
而且Massa和這位法拉利四冠王喜愛同壹條賽道。
“因特拉格斯是我家鄉的比賽，在這裏比賽對我來說是那樣的激動，但我最喜歡的賽道是斯帕。”他說道。
總也完不成的作業
像這些年來的許多車手壹樣，Massa從很小的時候就開始了卡丁比賽——當然他也經常開著他老爸的車在聖保羅城裏晃蕩，當時離他的法定駕駛年齡好遠著呢——但他發現學習實在是個麻煩。
“我第壹次參加比賽（in the Paulista championship）的時候，我拿到了第三名，但之後的賽程比賽我都沒參加，因為我在學校裏表現不好，我爸就把我從賽車裏扔出來了。”
盡管他媽媽始終不遺余力地把他推向大學校門，但最後他的學業之路還是宣告失敗，他扔下了行銷學學業，轉戰歐洲，成為了職業車手。
他不像其他對手壹樣有富裕的家庭作為後盾，錢對於他來說還真是個問題。
“我爸有個很小的塑料廠，他制造卡車緩沖器和巴士的塑料座椅，但他真的不富裕。”這個瘦弱的巴西男孩說道。
“在歐洲時，我擁有的只是壹大堆的資金問題，不多的贊助商，和朋友們。
當我參加歐洲雷諾方程式的時候，我只能參加在意大利的六場比賽，因為這就是我的自己能負擔的全部。十場比賽，我參加的頭兩場都贏了，然後車隊幫助我完成了剩余的比賽，拿到了歐洲冠軍。”
對手Kimi
Massa贏得了兩項冠軍頭銜，卻從來沒有留戀這些，當芬蘭車手Kimi Raikkonen轉會到邁凱輪的時候他得到了索伯車隊的試車機會。
各種情報都表明，測試結果絕對是震撼性的，Peter Sauber壹分鐘都沒耽擱，馬上簽下了這位少年天才，當時他已經跟法拉利有所接觸，而其他的壹些車隊也對他感興趣。
人們不可避免地把他跟Raikkonen相比，這位芬蘭少年上壹年為索伯贏得了分數，而且也因為他的酷炫而聞名於世，對於這些，Massa選擇無視。
“我並不把Kimi放在腦子裏，”他說，“當然，他去年的表現非常棒，他完成了很好的工作。而我也願意做到同樣好。”
巴西人搬去了瑞士，為了能更靠近車隊，而且他在聖誕節的時候給車廠的每個人都發去了聖誕卡片，這讓他結交了不少朋友。
他現在定居在Hinwil，盡管在瑞士的路上開車沒有在巴西時的那種興奮。
“在聖保羅開車感覺好極了，有種腎上腺素的飆升的感覺。”他說著，勾起壹個微笑，而周日的比賽應當會會給他帶來更多的興奮感覺。
The Massas: Keeping it in the Family
For a long time, Felipe Massa wasn't having a good season. In contrast to Giancarlo Fisichella, his colleague on the Sauber Petronas team, the Brazilian was battling in vain. Until he clinched fourth place in the Belgian Grand Prix, that is. According to Massa, that was the "best Formula One race of my career". Since then, he has caused quite a stir with his fighting spirit. Take last weekend, for example, when he came in eighth on home territory at the Brazilian Grand Prix. At emagazine we reckon we've discovered the key to the miraculous turnaround: "family power".
Tense atmosphere in the motorhome
Spa-Francorschamps, an hour before the start of the Belgian Grand Prix. Two Latin-looking women are sitting at a little table in the Sauber Petronas motorhome. It's not difficult to guess who they are waiting for, given that one of them bears a striking resemblance to Felipe Massa. That can only be his sister. And the other lady – his mother? Bingo. So now we know why they are sipping so nervously from their plastic cups. "I've never watched a race on TV", admits Ana Elena, Massa's mother. And Fernanda, Felipe's elder sister (25), confesses that she can rarely conceal her nervousness during a Grand Prix, "and especially not at the start." One might have expected them to be used to the pressure. After all, Felipe's racing career is already in its 14th season. When Dad put 8-year-old Felipe in a go-kart, his hopes were soon confirmed: His son was a "natural". And Felipe was just nine when he came fourth in his debut event, the Paulista micro-kart championship.
From driving instructor to champion
Early fame on the racetrack brought Felipe a few privileges. "Every time we had a family do, Felipe used to wait by the drive so that he could usher in the relatives' cars and park them himself", recalls Fernanda . At the tender age of nine – at his father's suggestion – Felipe taught his elder sister to drive. Fernanda: "He needed a cushion so that he could see over the steering wheel". On the racetrack, too, Felipe made rapid progress and worked his way up the various racing categories. And by the time he had won the Brazilian Formula Chevrolet championship at the age of 18, the home circuits had become too limited for him. So he crossed the Atlantic to take part in the Italian Formula Renault Series.
Felipe conquers Italy
Leaving the bosom of his Brazilian family wasn't as traumatic as one might think. Felipe took to Italy, the land of his forefathers (the Massas had emigrated from the Apulian town of Cerignola), like a duck to water. A year after romping home with first place in the Formula Renault, he created a storm by notching up four victories in a row in the European Formula 3000 series. Such oodles of talent couldn't escape the notice of Peter Sauber. At the time, he was looking for a successor to Kimi R?ikk?nen – Sauber's biggest discovery to date – for the 2002 season.
A short, sun-tanned man enters the motorhome. It is Felipe's father, Luiz Antonio. He's wearing a Sauber cap embroidered with his son's signature alongside the Brazilian crest – one of the "special edition" Massa fan items which Massa Sr. markets himself. In addition to managing a factory that produces plastic components, Luiz Antonio looks after the Felipe Massa brand himself. He has even hired a full-time secretary to help out with the work. But however well the merchandise sells, and however great the interest from sponsors, Felipe hasn't yet become a superstar at home. "Brazilians are hard as nails in that respect", says Fernanda rather indignantly. "Nothing less than an outright victory counts for anything, whatever field you're in".
Help from above
There's no doubt that Felipe's biggest fans are convinced he'll make it. "We know where he's come from, and know better than anyone else what he's capable of," says Fernanda. And to be quite sure that their "Operation World Champion" leads to the ultimate victory, the Massas are appealing to a higher authority. For seven days, Felipe's parents walked the pilgrim's route to Santiago de Compostela in Spain. "Naturally we also prayed for our son along the way," says Ana Elena, a devout Catholic who works for a S?o Paolo charity that looks after children with cancer and AIDS.
Our chat in the motorhome has eased the tension only temporarily. Excusing herself briefly, Massa's mother leaps out of her chair – it's only half an hour until the start. She won't be seen again in the motorhome for the duration of the race, but will be pacing up and down the paddock. Fernanda, on the other hand, won't miss a minute of it. With the roar of the actual race in the background, she watches the spectacle on TV in the Sauber area. And she won't be disappointed: It proves to be the most exciting race so far this season, and Felipe only narrowly misses a place on the podium after having been among the stragglers earlier on.
Where did Felipe get all this power? There are no doubts in his mother's mind. "Felipe has driven fantastically every time we've been here," she rejoices. So how long will it be before Peter Sauber signs up the three other Massas?
馬薩：不曾遠行
剛剛過去的八月，是母親Ana Elena,父親Luiz Antonio和姐姐Fernanda把Felipe Massa帶回到通往成功的道路上，現在就讓我們看看這個站在賽車運動之後的溫暖家庭。
很長時間以來，Massa都不曾有過好的表現。與隊友Fisichella形成鮮明對比的是，巴西男孩總是在徒勞地戰鬥。但這些結束在比利時大獎賽，那時他拿到了第四，他說這是他“F1生涯以來最美好的比賽”。從那以後，他的求勝心開始愈發的強烈。而在主場巴西大獎賽上，他拿到了第八，得到了可貴的積分。在壹本電子雜誌上，我們找到了他奇跡表現的關鍵，那就是家的力量。
motorhome裏最緊張的人
斯帕賽道，離比賽開始還有壹個小時。兩個有著拉丁相貌的女性正坐在索伯車房裏的壹個小桌子上，不難猜出她們正在等候著的是誰，因為其中壹個與Felipe Massa長得十分相似，引人註目。那肯定是她姐姐，那麽另壹個呢，他的媽媽？Bingo.所以現在我們知道為什麽她們為什麽緊張的拿著杯子，心不在焉的小口喝著水。“我從來不在電視上看比賽。”Massa的媽媽承認道。而25歲的Fernanda，Felipe的姐姐則說在大獎賽周末她幾乎無法掩飾自己的緊張，“特別是發車的時候”。也許妳認為他們總會習慣這樣的壓力的，但Felipe已經參加賽車運動14年了。八歲的時候Felipe的父親把扔進了壹輛卡丁車，而他的期望很快就被證實了，他的兒子簡直就是天生的賽車手。Felipe九歲時開始參加聖保羅小型卡丁車賽，第壹年就拿到了第四。
從駕駛教練到賽車冠軍
小小年紀就闖出名聲的他，自然享受著壹點特權。“每次我們家庭聚會的時候，Felipe總是等在路邊，因為他可以給親戚們引路，然後他自己替大家停車。”Fernanda回憶道。
九歲的時候，Felipe按照他父親的吩咐去教他姐姐開車，“他需要墊壹個墊子，只有這樣他才透過方向盤看到外面的路。”而在賽道上Felipe同樣進步神速，在各個級別的比賽中他不斷晉級。18歲時他贏得了巴西雪弗萊方程式，國內的賽道和比賽對他來說都太有限了，無法滿足他的成長。所以他橫渡大西洋來到了意大利，參加意大利雷諾方程式。
征服意大利
離開他溫馨的巴西家庭並不像別人想象的那樣艱難。Felipe來到意大利，這是他的先輩居住的地方（Massa家族是從意大利阿普利亞小鎮區的塞裏格諾拉（Cerignola）移民到巴西的），他在這裏如魚得水。他在參加雷諾方程式的第壹年輕易獲勝，而他在歐洲F3000更是得到了不可思議的四連勝。他出眾的天賦沒有逃過Peter Sauber的眼睛。當時他正在尋找kimi raikkonen的繼任者，這位索伯車隊至今以來最成功發掘的車手，在2002年離開了索伯車隊。
矮個子男人進入了motorhome中，他被曬得有些黑，那就是Felipe的父親，Luiz Antonio。他是帶著索伯車隊的帽子，帽檐壹邊繡著他兒子的簽名，旁邊還有壹個巴西徽章，這個Massa車迷特用標誌是老馬薩自己制造和出售的。作為壹間塑料加工廠的擁有者，Luiz Antonio料理著Felipe Massa這壹品牌。他甚至請了壹位全職助理來幫忙管理這些事情。但無論這樣的商品賣的多麽火爆，或者贊助商對他投入了多大的熱情，Felipe仍然沒有成為巴西人民心目當中的超級明星。“巴西人在這方面可是鐵石心腸不講情面的，”Fernanda或多或少有些不平，“勝利意味著壹切，無論妳從事的是什麽行業都是如此。”
上帝的幫助
毫無疑問，馬薩的最大粉絲們是確信他是可以成功的。“我們知道他來自哪裏，比任何人都清楚他的能力。” Fernanda說。很確定地說，他們的“世界冠軍行動”最後會成功，馬薩壹家在尋求著超越自己能力的力量。七天來，馬薩的父母走在朝聖的路通往西班牙的Santiago de Compostela，“很自然，我們沿路上在為我們的兒子祈禱。” Ana Elena說，Ana Elena是壹個虔誠的天主教徒，她為聖保羅的照顧癌癥和愛滋病孩子的慈善機構工作。
我們在Motorhome的聊天已經緩和了暫時的緊張氣氛，薩媽簡單地請求離開之後，她離開了她的椅子——從開始到現在只有半小時而已。在比賽期間，她不會再出現在Motorhome了，但她會在paddock裏焦慮地走來走去。另壹方面，Fernanda，不會錯過壹分鐘的。在轟鳴的比賽中，她在索伯的車房裏的電視裏看比賽，她不會失望，這個賽季，這被證明是到目前為止最激動人心的比賽了，在比賽前期馬薩在壹堆車的擁擠中掙紮，最後以微弱的劣勢錯失領獎臺。
馬薩哪裏來的那麽多的力量？毫無疑問，在她媽媽的腦子裏，“我們每次在這裏，都能看見馬薩做到完美。”她欣喜地說。所以，索伯車隊什麽時候會簽下這三位馬薩的家人呢？
