Felipe Massa has claimed that he will not allow the speculation regarding his future to have an impact on his performance for Ferrari.

The Brazilian's current deal expires at the end of this season and despite a number of drivers being linked with his seat, Massa once again reaffirmed his commitment to the team.

"Of course my future is important, but right now it's the results that are the most important thing, which means I have to concentrate on each race as it comes," the 31-year-old told Ferrari's official website.

"I know what I can do, what I can give to the team and what are my talents. The team also knows this, because I've been here with them for rather longer than a day or even a year.

"The best plan is to race without worrying about the future."

Fernando Alonso has revealed that he would like to continue working with Massa at Ferrari.
