#7 Felipe Massa
Brazilian, Felipe Massa, who drives for the Williams team, also earns an annual salary of €4 million or $4.48 million. This means he got a 50 percent decrease in salary when he switched from Ferrari; because in 2013 he reportedly raked in €6 million. Massa began his interest in racing a little differently, doing go-karting at the age of eight years in 1989. He launched his Formula 1 career driving for the Swiss Sauber, then switched to Scuderia Ferrari where he worked as a test driver in 2003. After another two years with Sauber, he went back to Ferrari and won his home Grand Prix in 2006. He replaced Paster Maidonado (#10) at Williams from 2014.
