Trulli: Right choice to join Lotus

25 March 2010

Jarno Trulli has no regrets after joining the Lotus F1 team for 2010. The Italian is currently in his fourteenth season of Formula 1 and will now mainly have to focus on finishing races rather than scoring points or podiums; however, the Italian enjoys the challenge of building up a new team and moving forwards.

"You have to finish a race if you want to score points, so this is a good point for both of us," the former Toyota driver said when asked if he doesn't mind the fact he is now chasing finishes rather than points.


"Obviously I was hoping for more but, given the situation where Formula 1 was, I think I made a good choice to join Lotus. It's a new team but with a great brand behind it and especially a great motivation and a big project.

"I knew that it would have been a difficult first season and first part of the season but my hope is that I'm going to do this season like a preparation for next year and so it's somehow a bit disappointing, but on the other hand I think it's also important for a driver to have a new challenge and also prove that you can start again from zero and bounce back.

"I think that if I can do it, I can once more prove that I can do a certain job. Obviously, it's not going to be easy but I'm motivated and strong enough to do that and so probably in a year's time I will discuss again and see where we all are with Lotus, myself and the team. I'm looking forward to this challenge and I'm really fired up."
