Frank says OK !!


Sir Frank Williams has come out in support of the FIA's decision to allow Felipe Massa to test drive a Ferrari later this month.

Massa is on the road back to Formula One after suffering a career-threatening head injury in July's Hungarian Grand Prix.

Just two months after the accident, the 28-year-old is already building up his fitness and headed to Maranello earlier this week in preparation for simulator work.

The next step is a test drive in Ferrari's Championship-winning F2007, which is scheduled for later this month.

Massa's test has been welcomed by Williams, who came in for a bit of stick earlier this year when he said no to Michael Schumacher testing Ferrari's F60 in preparation for his aborted comeback.

"I would like to wish Felipe well with his return to a Formula 1 car next week," Williams said in a statement.

"It is a tribute to the safety standards of Formula 1 today, and of course to Felipe's characteristic determination and drive, that he is making his return so soon.

"I hope that the test proves a successful step in his rehabilitation."
