Massa to confront Alonso on collision at Silverstone

Felipe Massa, starting 7th from grid on Sunday, at the British GP, saw his race ruined by a collision with his team-mate in the first corner.

The incident of the two Ferrari colliding was overshadowed by another incident in which Alonso and Kubica were involved, that eventually led to Alonso getting penalised by the stewards, with a drive-through penalty. 

 

The Brazilian, who had a mediocre qualifying compared to his team-mate, sustained a damaged to his wing and a puncture to his rear tyre, that made him pit early. It also put him behind any possibility of challenging for points any further in the race.

 

He was quoted, in the Portuguese language aeiou.pt: "I'll talk to Alonso to find out why he has touched my car."

 

"You really must not touch your teammate's car," added the 29-year-old.

 

A similar incident involving two Red Bulls, that saw both of its colliding in a recent race, boiled over and turned ugly, with each blaming the other, creating a rift in the team.
