We need normal dry testing - Trulli

F1 Test, Algarve, Autódromo Internacional do Algarve

Toyota driver Jarno Trulli has expressed his views that the new car performs at a much lower level in wet conditions, and sadly enough every day of the ongoing Portimao test has been hit with constant precipitation, along with wind and even hail on some occasions.

Trulli shared with 'autosport': "There is a massive drop in downforce and grip. In the conditions it was very difficult to get temperature in the tyres. It was really hard for everyone out there and it was nearly impossible to drive.

We just need to get into the normal testing with warm conditions."

The Japanese team will be heading towards Bahrain for their next test session, where it will almost surely be dry.
