Felipe Massa: Playing Dirty Has Never Been Part of My Game

Felipe Massa hit back at claims from Eddie Jordan that he would play dirty to win the title in this weekend's season finale at Interlagos, stating that, "Playing dirty has never been part of my game."

Talking to the Press Association, Massa slammed Jordan for saying what he did and insisted, "I don't want anything to do with it. The only thing on my mind is winning the race."

Massa heads into the title showdown seven points adrift of McLaren rival Lewis Hamilton. He has said that he has no intention of winning the WDC by foul-play.

"If I'm champion, it will be a dream come true. If not, that's okay. I will try again next year."

Later on in the interview, Massa took a sly dig at Eddie Jordan and said, "Since he sold his team, Eddie Jordan has had nothing to do with F1 except for what he says in the press!"

Massa, who will be on home-turf, will attempt to overtake Hamilton's seven-point advantage in front of a predominantly Ferrari crowd. Pressure is mounting on both drivers, but in the interview Massa turned up the intensity of the mind games and insisted that he went into the race on Sunday with nothing to lose.

"Lewis will try and put pressure on me, but I have zero pressure because I have nothing to lose," he said.

"I have my people behind me, and all the pressure will be on him, especially when you think of what happened at this race last year. I now can't wait for this final Sunday of the season."

Do you think that Eddie Jordan had the right to say what he did?  Who do you think has more pressure on their shoulders?  Regardless of what the fans think, Sunday will be will be the true calling for two drivers that have had one hell of a season.
