He regularly competed in Formula One from 1997 to 2011, driving for Minardi, Prost, Jordan, Renault, Toyota and Lotus. His best result in the World Drivers' Championship was sixth place in 2004, also the year in which he scored his sole victory at the Monaco Grand Prix. Throughout his Formula One career, Trulli was renowned for his skill in qualifying, regularly achieving far better grid positions than rivals with superior cars to his own.[1] He was also known for his defensive driving style which allowed him to successfully hold off quicker drivers, sometimes for an entire race. The combination of being able to achieve high grid positions in relatively slow cars, combined with his ability to hold off faster drivers, would often result in a line of vehicles forming behind him during a race, commonly referred to as the 'Trulli Train' by fans and media.[2]
Trulli was set to remain in Formula One for 2012, but retired before the season began. He competed in the inaugural season of Formula E, founding and competing for Trulli GP. Trulli is the father of racing driver Enzo Trulli.
In 1997, Trulli made his debut in Formula One with Minardi. After 7 races he replaced the injured Olivier Panis at Prost and impressed immediately, finishing fourth in Germany[3] and even leading in Austria, looking set to finish second until his engine blew.[4] He stayed at the Prost team for the next two seasons and eventually scored his first podium in wet conditions at the 1999 European Grand Prix.[5] However, this was a rare highlight in a race few of the main front-runners finished, and the poor performance of the Prost team convinced him that a switch to Jordan would bring improved results.[6]
In 2000 he moved to the Irish squad,[6] but the team was no longer the force it had been in the late 1990s. In his two years with Jordan, Trulli failed to score a podium, but did impress with a series of brilliant qualifying displays. During this period suggestions were made that Trulli was more of a qualifying specialist than an out-and-out fast race driver, a charge he frequently denied. Under a long-term contract with his personal manager (and Renault manager) Flavio Briatore, Trulli secured a contract with the Anglo-French squad for 2002.[7]
Alongside Jenson Button, he often outqualified his British teammate, but was generally shaded in races. Regardless of Button's improved pace that season, it was Trulli who stayed at Renault for 2003 to partner promoted test-driver Fernando Alonso.[8] The 2003 Renault was a strong car and in Alonso's hands won in Hungary.[9] Trulli struggled to attain similar results, but did achieve a podium in Germany, his first since leaving Prost.[10]

Mindful of how much Alonso had outperformed him in 2003, Trulli improved markedly the next year. For the first half of the season he was the better of the two Renault drivers, racking up regular points and podiums.[11] At Monaco he finally took his only victory after a brilliant display from pole position.[12][13] Having performed so well, the Italian was eager to stick with the team for 2005, but his relationship with team-boss Briatore soured. A last corner error which allowed Ferrari's Rubens Barrichello onto the podium in France enraged the team,[14] and from that point his days with the French manufacturer were numbered.[11] He did not score any points after the French Grand Prix and was consistently off the pace during races. He later accused the team of favouring Alonso, but the reasons why his 2004 season deteriorated have never been properly identified.[15] He was sacked three races before the end of the season and replaced by 1997World ChampionJacques Villeneuve, despite leading his teammate in the championship at that point.[16] Trulli had already agreed to drive for Toyota in 2005, and his early exit from Renault allowed him to take up his new seat for the last two races of the 2004 season, replacing Ricardo Zonta.[17]
Toyota (2004–2009)

2004–2005
In 2005, early season podiums demonstrated Trulli's speed and at Indianapolis he took Toyota's first Formula One pole.[18] However, he, his teammate and the majority of the grid, did not enter the race due to using Michelin tyres, which were not safe to race.[19] For the vast majority of the year he outpaced his highly paid teammate Ralf Schumacher, but a late season dip in form saw him slip to seventh in the championship, two points behind the German.[20]

2006
In 2006, Trulli suffered a very poor start to the season. On the first lap of the Australian Grand Prix, he was taken out by David Coulthard.[21] He seemed to be outpaced by teammate Ralf Schumacher more often than not, but finally scored his first points of the season when he raced to 6th from 4th on the grid at the Canadian Grand Prix.[21] Following this was a 4th place in the United States Grand Prix.[21] From then on, he would only score 3 more times, with a couple of 7th-place finishes in the German Grand Prix and the Italian Grand Prix and also a 6th place in the Japanese Grand Prix, where his car became troublesome to drive mid-race, and Ralf Schumacher was delayed in the process.[22] Trulli was racing very well in the season finale at Interlagos, but his car suffered suspension failure in the first 10 laps, a fate which befell his teammate at the same time.[23] He finished 12th overall.
Trulli scored his first points of 2007 in Malaysia, finishing in 7th place after qualifying 8th.[24] A couple more points followed in Bahrain,[25] but he stalled on the grid at the start of the Spanish Grand Prix and dropped out during the early laps due to mechanical failure.[26]Monaco brought no better fortune for Trulli, as he finished down in 15th place, just ahead of teammate Schumacher, after qualifying his season-worst 14th.[27][28] Points were collected by Trulli at the Indianapolis for 6th place. After a series of non-scoring runs, Trulli said that the result was 'incredible'.[29] He also qualified well for the French Grand Prix but crashed with the Renault of Heikki Kovalainen on the opening lap, and duly retired because of the damage.[30] Trulli accepted the blame for the incident. The second half of the season was disappointing with Trulli's only point coming in the final race of the season at Brazil.[31]
Trulli finished the championship in 13th position, collecting only 8 points. Post season there had been reports that Trulli's contract was not safe, and that he may have been replaced in the Toyota team for 2008 by Heikki Kovalainen.[32] These proved unfounded as Kovalainen signed for McLaren.[33]
2008
Trulli driving for Toyota at the 2008 French Grand Prix, where he scored the team's first podium finish for more than two years
In 2008, Trulli was hoping Toyota would make a big step forward.[34]Timo Glock was confirmed as his teammate for the season.[35] Trulli started the season quite well, with several points scoring finishes, the height of which was a fourth-place finish in Malaysia.[36] Trulli's qualifying performances were also very good throughout the first few rounds of the Championship. His form then slumped a little, with disappointing performances in Turkey and Monaco, as he finished in non-points scoring positions.
However, he bounced back from this with a 6th-place finish in Montreal.[37] He then topped that in France by finishing on the podium in 3rd place, holding off the challenge of Heikki Kovalainen and Robert Kubica in the closing laps.[38]
He qualified on the front row alongside pole-sitter Felipe Massa for the season-ending Brazilian Grand Prix, which was to decide the 2008 world championship between Massa and Lewis Hamilton.[39] During the race, Trulli had several close shaves in the changeable weather conditions, and eventually finished 8th. His teammate Glock played a pivotal part in the title outcome as he was passed by Hamilton on the last corner of the race, which gave the Englishman the championship by one point from Massa, who won easily.[40] Trulli finished 8th in the Drivers' Championship standings, collecting 31 points, 4 more than his teammate.[41]
Trulli was confident going into 2009.[42] In the first race of the 2009 season, the Toyotas of Trulli and Glock started the race from the pitlane as their qualifying times were disallowed due to Toyota's flexible rear wing breaching regulations.[43] Although Trulli started from the pit lane, he finished in an impressive 3rd place before being penalised 25 seconds, dropping him to 12th position for passing Lewis Hamilton under the safety car.[44] A few days after this decision, Hamilton was disqualified from the race results for 'misleading' the race stewards by insisting that Jarno Trulli had passed him under the Safety Car although Hamilton in fact let him pass on purpose due to an order given by the team from the pitlane.[45] Jarno Trulli therefore regained his third-place finish.[46] At the Bahrain Grand Prix, Trulli qualified on pole position[47] but due to an unconventional tyre strategy, he finished third.[48] However he did record the fastest lap, the only time he has achieved this in his career. He holds the record of having started the most Grands Prix before recording a fastest lap.[49]
He crashed out of the Spanish Grand Prix after being forced off the track at the second corner and being collected by Adrian Sutil,[50] and then had a poor performance in Monaco as the Toyotas qualified on the back row of the grid.[51] Improvements saw him score points in three of the next four races, before the following four rounds saw him struggle again as he failed to finish in the Top 10. At the Singapore Grand Prix he placed 12th while teammate Glock was second.[52] Trulli then fought back at the Japanese Grand Prix – which would prove to be Toyota's last home race – by qualifying and finishing second.[53]
He then qualified fourth in torrential conditions in Brazil,[54] but like in Spain collided with Adrian Sutil on the opening lap of the race, an incident which enraged Trulli as he blamed Sutil for the crash. His obvious display of anger towards Sutil (who also retired) afterwards earned him a $10,000 fine.[55][56] Trulli finished seventh at the season finale in Abu Dhabi scoring his final points in Toyota F1's last race.[57][58]
On 14 December 2009, Trulli was confirmed as one of the newly formed Lotus team's drivers, joining former McLaren driver Heikki Kovalainen.[59] He only finished one of the opening four races, a weaker reliability record than Kovalainen, leading him to note that "everything happens on my car and my car only – so to this day, my expectations have not been met".[60]
At the launch of the Lotus T127, Trulli admitted in an interview with Autosport that US F1 and Sauber had been in contact with him.[61] In late 2009, Trulli was asked to test a NASCAR stock car in North America for Toyota. The car was set up by Michael Waltrip Racing.
Trulli continued to drive for Lotus in 2011, with Lotus Racing being renamed Team Lotus. He again partnered Heikki Kovalainen.[62]
Trulli's season started with thirteenth in Australia,[63] before a retirement with a clutch problem in Malaysia.[64] Trulli finished each of the next six races, equalling his best season finish of thirteenth in Monaco.[65] In Britain, he retired with an oil leak.[66] For the German Grand Prix, Trulli was replaced by reserve driver Karun Chandhok.[67] When he returned in Hungary, he retired due to a water leak; his teammate Kovalainen retired some laps later with an identical problem.[68] He finished 14th at both the Belgian Grand Prix and the Italian Grand Prix, where it was announced that Trulli would be retained for the 2012 season.[69][70] After retiring in Singapore with a gearbox failure, Trulli finished 19th in Japan, 17th in Korea and 19th again, in India.
Caterham (2012)
Trulli in pre-season testing for Caterham at Jerez – he was replaced by Vitaly Petrov after this test
Team Lotus was renamed to Caterham F1 ahead of the 2012 season.[71] Trulli drove in one pre-season test, but on 17 February 2012 it was announced that Trulli was replaced by Vitaly Petrov.[72][73] Following, Trulli stated that he was "really proud" to have helped Caterham become a Formula One team.[74]
Trulli's original helmet design was white with a blue shape around the visor with a blue circle in the top and a green J with a red T in the sides. A ring around the blue circle was incorporated when he raced at Jordan and Renault, being coloured after the team's main sponsor. In 2004 his helmet changed from white to chromed silver and the shape, the J and the T became chromed with black outline. Later, in his first Toyota years the top became red and was added a white ring around the red circle. Finally in 2008 the helmet turned red with the J and the T of the original colours (and white outline) plus a white line on the chin area. From his Lotus years, the helmet design remained intact, with the change of the shades of colour from chromed to normal shades (the chromed silver becomes white).[77][78]
Personal life
Trulli is married to Barbara and they have two sons, Enzo Trulli (b. 2005), named after Trulli's father, and Marco (b. 2006), and a daughter Veronica (b. 2014). He is the co-owner of a vineyard in the Abruzzo region in Italy and produces his own wine.[79] He also has his own range of Karts named 'Trulli Kart'; Trulli himself was a World Champion at Karting level.[80] His son Enzo is also pursuing career in motorsports he competed in the WSK karting series,[81] before starting single seater racing in F4 UAE in 2021, and for 2022 at present in FIA Formula 3 Championship.[82]
