Massa relishing Italian GP

Felipe Massa will be aiming to keep Ferrari's Formula One title hopes alive on home turf in two weeks' time.

Massa spearheaded a Ferrari one-two in Sunday's Turkish Grand Prix, and the advantage will again be with Ferrari at the Italian Grand Prix in Monza on September 9.

"This result is of great encouragement when looking to the final part of the season, and it is fantastic to head to Monza after a weekend like this," said Massa. "It is a very special race for us, so hopefully we can repeat the result here."

He added: "It would be fantastic for the team, for the people, for the tifosi (supporters), so I'm looking forward to the race."
