Felipe Massa is astonished that Nick Heidfeld has not been offered a race-seat for the 2010 Formula One season.
Heidfeld was left without a drive when BMW withdrew from F1 last season, with the team's ownership reverting back to Peter Sauber.
The German, who debuted with Prost in 2000, has run out of options for a race-seat ahead of the upcoming championship, which gets underway in Bahrain on March 14.
Settled
Heidfeld has instead settled for a test-driver role for Mercedes GP, completing their all-German line-up alongside Nico Rosberg and Michael Schumacher.
But Brazilian Ferrari driver Massa has expressed surprise that his former Sauber team-mate has been overlooked, particularly given some of the names on the grid this year.
"Why has no one offered my former team-mate Nick Heidfeld a good race-seat?" Massa told Swiss newspaper Blick.
"If I look at this year's field in such a way, then he belongs in Formula One - not as a test driver."
