For the second time in his F1 career, Felipe Massa announced his retirement from the sport, but this time it's final he insists.
A veteran of 267 Grands Prix - 269 when the curtain falls in Abu Dhabi later this month, Massa's career spans fifteen years and has yielded 11 wins, 16 pole positions and 41 podiums to date.
