Unusual guests today at the Fiorano Track: instead of the Prancing Horse cars, centre stage were the circus performers and animals, brought to Maranello to celebrate Christmas with all the Ferrari employees and their families.

This morning Felipe went on track again in Fiorano on a F2007, in the first long-awaited test with a Formula 1 after the accident of July in Hungary.

Felipe Massa returned to the track last Monday, 28 and 29/09 this time, driving a kart. The Brazilian Karting trained in the Granja Viana in Cotia, in Greater São Paulo. He gave six laps on the track and felt no discomfort. He entered the track with Ferrari’s uniform and his helmet green and yellow. On Friday, Ferrari said that the Brazilian has started a training program to prepare for a return to Formula 1.
