Felipe Massa returned to a Formula 1 car this morning in Italy. The Brazilian is testing a Ferrari F2007 on GP2 tyres at the team's test track at Fiorano. He is not planning to return to F1 this year but is simply doing the tests to see whether or not his accident in Hungary in July has had any long-term effects. It i anticipated that Massa will return to testing this winter and will be back in F1 full time next year as team-mate to new signing Fernando Alonso. Ferrari will rely on Kimi Raikkonen and Giancarlo Fisichella for the final two races of the year.
