Felipe Massa didn't get the best of starts to his Bahrain Grand Prix on Friday when his Williams suffered with brake failure at the end of FP1.

The team has since discovered what the issue was and have now understood and resolved the problem.

Felipe's performance in FP2  was very strong, on every run so overall, despite his minor brake problem, the Brazilian driver had a rather good day.

Overall he is happy with the way the car os performing and is now looking forward to a strong run in Saturday qualifying….

"It was a positive day,” he said. “I'm happy with the performance of the car on the new tyres and especially the old tyres as it's quite consistent with race simulation. We've shown quite reasonable performance today. We need to concentrate on everything we've done this evening and prepare the car even better for tomorrow evening, as well as Sunday. I'm really looking forward to a good weekend.
