Ferrari president Luca di Montezemolo insists that no decision has been taken as to who will partner Fernando Alonso next year.
Speaking to Reuters, he insisted that it was too early to seal the fate of Felipe Massa, who has struggled to get on the pace this year.
“We never take a decision before the second half of the season,” he said. “I'm sure that, because we are improving our car, the car will be less difficult to drive. And I expect from Felipe better performances as I have already seen in Monte Carlo, because in Monte Carlo he was among the five quickest drivers on the track and in the qualifiers.
“So I hope he will continue like this. At the moment we are not taking any decision yet for the future, because it is too early.”
Montezemolo also played down the prospects of Ferrari academy member Sergio Perez joining the team: “Perez is a good driver but to drive a Ferrari you need more experience. I think he is one of the potential best young drivers for the future but before putting a young driver in a Ferrari I need more experience and more results.”
Robert Kubica has had further surgery on his elbow in an effort to improve mobility
And...
Massa:
“I definitely feel more confident now,” he concluded. “I feel stronger as well. It was very good compared to the start of the season, but we cannot be satisfied and now I want us to work hard to get something more. If we find the right direction, I know what I can do.”
It looks like rain on Friday ...damn I want dry ...this will be BIG for Ferrari...did they improve slow corner exit and top end...cannot find out in the wet...
Why does Fox have the race broadcast? I don't get it. It's just cherry picking as far as I can see. Fox cares nothing of F1 or it's fans. And if you are like me, Fox pisses me off.

AGREED How or why they have the broadcast is beyond me! Their show will start with the drop of the green flag or sometime after. No post race interviews. Fox sucks!!! $$$ doesn't buy class or brains....
A low-pressure weather system lying to the south-east of Montreal is producing cool conditions in the area at the moment. Thunderstorms are expected on Friday afternoon which could coincide with the second practice session at 2pm.
Lighter rain is forecast on Saturday, which could make for an interesting qualifying session. But conditions for the race are expected to be much better.
Not sure why the "Heads" at Fox bought it....seems a bit out of their job jar.
Sky going through the computer is not bad ....resolution is not HD and that really sucks..I will run both Fox and computer at the same time...I hope FIRSTROW is stable it be a bit sporty to get working
