Looks like f1.com have forgotten about Massa already....
Discussion
Right at the bottom of the page, last question of the interview with Piquet JR. Bit embarrassing that the official f1 website have forgotten him.

Just in case it gets fixed:
F1.com said:
Q: For the moment, it doesn't look as if Rubens Barrichello will get a ride this season, which makes you the only Brazilian driver on the grid…
NP: David Coulthard planned his retirement. He knew he was going to stop and everybody gave him a present. Unfortunately, Rubens had the idea that he was going to continue and then there was the bad news with Honda - and he is not stopping in the best way. I feel bad for him but he had a long career and achieved a lot of things, and a lot of wins. And yes, I might be the only Brazilian driver for the moment but there are talented drivers like Bruno Senna waiting for their chance - so it’s only temporary.
