Felipe Massa admitted it was difficult to draw many conclusions from a difficult start to the Belgian Grand Prix weekend that saw intermittent showers disrupt Friday's running.
"It's hard to make much sense of such a strange day: first it was dry, then wet and then it repeated itself," said Massa. "Luckily, at least we managed to try both types of slick tyre brought here by Pirelli, even if just for a few laps. Along with the engineers, we will have to try and interpret the data in the best way possible to make the right choices: in any case, first impressions, from what I can tell, are positive."
Massa, who finished 7th quickest in the opening session and fifth after the afternoon's running, hopes that some new developments to the car will pay dividends over the weekend.
"We have some new parts and I think we will use them for the rest of the weekend, because they have allowed us to improve our performance. Where we are compared to the others, we will only know tomorrow in qualifying. I really like this track a lot: maybe it's lost some of its excitement in some corners, such as Eau Rouge, which is now practically a straight, but it is still great to drive a Formula 1 car on a track like this."
