Todt backing Massa to make mark

Ferrari team boss Jean Todt admitted Felipe Massa out-drove his seven-time world champion team-mate Michael Schumacher in the Malaysian Grand Prix, despite having a slower strategy and starting behind him.

The Brazilian, who spun himself out of contention for the win in Bahrain last week, started on the back row after two engine changes brought a 10-place grid penalty, while Schumacher lined up 14th after he also took a new powerplant.
