Massa expects contract sorted soon

Williams driver Felipe Massa has urged the team to hurry up and decide on his future within the next couple of weeks.

The Brazilian signed an initial two-year deal prior to the 2014 season, and the team has an option to extend it by a further year.

Massa has impressed in his seasons at the team, and secured their first pole position for two years in Austria last season.

He told Motorsport.com: “I hope to announce the renewal quickly. There is a clause in the contract that says that the team can renew my contract, and I don't think that this will take too long.

“There is a time-limit in the contract [September] for the team to take this option, so I don't see why they won't do the renewal.”

If Williams opt against offering Massa a new deal, they could have two brand new drivers for next season with Valtteri Bottas continually linked with Ferrari.
