Oct.12 (GMM) Felipe Massa has hinted an announcement about his 2013 contract extension at Ferrari may be imminent.

"I think it will not be long," the Brazilian told Totalrace, amid reports there is still a chance Force India's Nico Hulkenberg or Paul di Resta could snatch the cockpit from him.

The previously struggling Massa, however, suggested he has now done enough to keep his seat.

"We have done a good job in the second part of the championship," he said. "It's a pity we didn't manage it before, but I think we need to highlight the positive side of the second part.

"I have worked and fought hard to make it happen.

"The last few races have been very good and important for me. It's all going in the right direction now.

"Of course I'm concerned about continuing, but I believe it will happen," he added.
