Felipe Massa announced on Monday that he intends
to return
to competitive formula one action at his home Brazilian Grand Prix in
mid October.
"I hope that I can be back at the Brazilian grand
prix for my public, and perhaps even earlier," the injured Ferrari
driver told Brazilian TV Globo.
Reports say that the
28-year-old's recuperation is moving along quite well, but that the
vision
in his left eye is not yet back to 100 per cent.
Massa is hoping
that by the next round of detailed tests at the beginning of September,
he will be given the green light to return to the track.
"If the
doctors here in Brazil say it is ok I will first of all get into a
kart," he said. The step after that is for the FIA's medical team to
assess him.
"I can hardly wait to drive again," said Massa,
who
revealed that he has not feared death at any time during or since his
Hungarian GP qualifying crash ordeal because he remembers nothing of
the actual incident.
