Driver beware

● “We are a little bit concerned. We go there, we haven’t tested, we don’t have any idea. It is going to be a night race, it is going to be in the rainy season, so it isn’t exactly what you really want from a safety point of view. It doesn’t look comfortable so far.” Jarno Trulli, Toyota
