Massa surprised to see Heidfeld in test driver role
Ferrari's Felipe Massa doesn't understand why his former teammate Nick Heidfeld is without a race seat this season, and instead a test/reserve driver for Mercedes GP. Massa said to Swiss newspaper 'Blick', "Why has no one offered my former team-mate Nick Heidfeld a good race-seat? If I look at this year's field in such a way, then he belongs in Formula One - not as a test driver."
The two were teammates at the beginning of the century in the Sauber squad, whom Heidfeld raced with until 2009. During his Formula One career the German driver never managed to win a race, and his best championship position was fifth during the 2007 season.
