Ferrari's Felipe Massa's rub with Lewis Hamilton going into the chicane on the 21st lap of Sunday's Japanese Grand Prix was their fourth collision of the season, and the Brazilian is angry.

Ferrari reported negligible damage to Massa's car after Hamilton claimed he was in his blind spot and had "no idea he was there", when the incident occurred. The race stewards concluded it was simply a racing incident but Massa raged: "I don't care, to be honest, about what he said. The only thing I care about is what he did. I was much quicker, stayed on my line and he moved across and touched my car. The FIA need to take care of it. They have penalised people for much less and this time they didn't do it. "
