God if he can't keep race pace for 50 laps, how's he going to manage 200+ ;)
He is just set for a run. I wouldnt read too much into a full time switch to Nascar.
I remember people saying the same thing about Montoya.Quote:

I wonder how the Americans will take to the Trulli train? (A lap down Trulli train of course ;) )
You never know, he may be up challenging with Montoya.Quote:

But generally I'm wondering, what is it so attractive about NASCAR that several drivers with F1 background are going to test there - also Salo and Piquet Jr. It looks like NASCAR is pushing hard to attract well-known names from other continents to make the series more attractive world-wide.
Personally, if Trulli happens to leave F1, I'd prefer to see him in some other series than NASCAR - like DTM or something. ;)
You might remember that no one else has won in a Toyota either.Quote:
