LONDON (Reuters) - Brazilian driver Felipe Massa announced his retirement from Formula One at the end of the season, and for the second time, on Saturday. After an emotional send-off in Brazil last year, Massa was back in the cockpit a few months later. The Brazilian Grand Prix, the penultimate round of the season, is next week with Abu Dhabi ending the season on Nov. 26. Massa won 11 races with Ferrari and finished runner-up to Lewis Hamilton, now a four-times world champion, by a single point in the 2008 season. Massa joined Williams in 2014, helping the former champions to take third place in the constructors' championship that year and in 2015.
