Toyota: Trulli not surprised

Jarno Trulli, who spent six seasons in the team Formula 1 de Toyota, se sent forcément concerné par la décision du constructeur nippon de se retirer. Pourtant, si Toyota avait maintenu son implication en F1, le pilote italien n?entrait plus dans les plans de John Howett. A 35 ans, Jarno Trulli devait, quoiqu?il en soit, trouver un volant ailleurs. Malgré tout, le pilote des Abruzzes ne garde aucune rancœur et se montre désolé pour les gens avec lesquels il a travaillé.

« This decision does not surprise me, commented Jarno Trulli in the columns of Gazzetta dello Sport. But it saddens me no less, especially for the staff of the team, with whom I had a wonderful relationship and with whom I hope I will be able to work again in the future. »

Concerning his future destination, the Italian pilot does not want to rush, announcing several offers. The most serious is that which leads to Lotus F1 Racing, its technical director, Mike Gascoyne, particularly appreciating Jarno Trulli. “ I will have to study these offers but I will only make my decision after November 22, at the end of the Toyota Motor Festival in Fuji. »
