Trulli obvious...
Another Indy fiasco unlikely - Trulli
F1 is unlikely to stage another 2005-style six-car debacle at Indianapolis next weekend.
That's the expectation of Jarno Trulli, Toyota racer and a leading light of the drivers' representative body 'GPDA'.
''We (have) discussed (what happened in 2005) because it was a safety issue,'' the Italian explained, while backing Michelin's decision to pull fourteen cars from the race.
Following a couple of tyre failures in practice, including one that that sidelined Trulli's teammate Ralf Schumacher, only a handful of Michelin's rival Bridgestone-clad cars actually took the start of the 2005 US GP.
''Honestly, we simply couldn't race last year and so there was very little to be done,'' he said.
But Trulli added: ''I think the tyre suppliers will be a bit more careful this year.''
