Lewis Hamilton's 2008 F1 title at risk as Felipe Massa considers suing FIA

Felipe Massa plans to assess all his legal options in a bid to change the outcome of the 2008 Formula 1 title race.

The Brazilian thought, for a few seconds after finishing the Brazilian Grand Prix, that he had just become world champion in front of his home crowd. But Lewis Hamilton had other ideas, overtaking the slow-moving Timo Glock on the final lap to score just enough points to move back above his rival.

Massa took that extremely painful defeat with great dignity and sportsmanship at the time. However, 15 years on, the 41-year-old is looking to change the history books after recent comments made by former F1 supremo Bernie Ecclestone, regarding the 2008 Singapore Grand Prix.
