You can always lose some points. Okay, I lost it this year, so well done to him, he deserves it in the end. He got the most points from this year, so I don't feel bad. Of course, my season was not what I wanted in the end but that's racing. Sometimes you have bad moments during the season and it cost too many points for me this year but I will try to come back next year and it's a completely different story again. I won it once and for sure I want to win it more times but this year didn't happen and we will come back stronger next year and try to get it back.

Massa, what can you say to the people who didn't believe that you could do better than Räikkönen and that you could be fired and wouldn't race in 2009? What can you say to the people who didn't believe in you?
FM:
I have nothing to say. I just do my job, try to do the best I can. I think last year Kimi did a better championship than me. This year, I did a better championship than him. So many things change from one year to the next. We just need to do our best, what we can. I don't have to say anything, just do my job. People write things, sometimes you write things and the day after you change your mind, so I think these people will change their minds a little bit. I don't care. But to be honest, I hear much more good things about me than bad things, so I'm quite happy.

Felipe, you are the first person to say that you don't cry a lot but today it was almost impossible on the podium. How can you tell, what mixed emotions were in your mind?
FM:
I'm not normally the kind of guy who cries a lot, but I think today it was quite difficult; it was quite difficult to hold back your emotions. Maybe with my age, I'm becoming older and getting more… and crying a little bit more as well, so we're becoming a little bit older. Today I think it was impossible. It was such a mix of emotions, I'm so proud of the Brazilian people here and it was not possible to hold back and I just let it go because it was better.

Felipe, when you meet Timo Glock the next time what are you going to say to him?
FM:
At the end of the day, he [didn't have] wet tyres, the rain was getting heavier, so I'm sure he didn't do it on purpose, I think he just missed the braking point, it was wet, so I cannot say anything. We just need to celebrate what we did today and think about next year.
