Massa to do Sauber tests

Peter Sauber told the media at the launch of his new F1 challenger that Felipe Massa may be made available to Sauber this year when he is not doing tests for Ferrari.

Peter Sauber has confirmed that Ferrari's new test driver Felipe Massa, who drove for Sauber last year, will be made available to the Swiss team this year when he is not busy doing Ferrari test work. Massa was named as Ferrari's second test driver last week after being dropped by Sauber at the end of last year to make way for the veteran Heinz-Harald Frentzen.
