Massa and Ferrari hope for Fuji lift

FUJI SPEEDWAY: Felipe Massa and his Ferrari team will be bidding for an overwhelming one-two triumph in this weekend's Japanese Grand Prix at Mount Fuji as they try to rein in McLaren and Lewis Hamilton.

The "scarlet scuderia" need a victory to boost their confidence and revitalise their challenge for this year's Formula One world championship.

Massa, whose hopes of lifting the title suffered a setback when the team spectacularly bungled a pit-stop while he was leading the Singapore Grand Prix, said he remained positive.
