TRULLI RESIGNED TO FERRARI DOMINANCE

Last Updated: Wednesday, 22, December, 2004, 14:48

Jarno Trulli believes that Ferrari already have the 2005 world titles sewn up.

The Toyota driver says that the world champions are so far in front that it will take more than a year for teams to close the gap.

He told the Gazzetta dello Sport: "They have such an advantage that if they were to stop working today, they would still be at the front next year.

"I don't know if they will dominate like this year but I believe that they will be in front of everybody else."

However, Trulli has high hopes for his new Toyota outfit

i really don't like that kind of defeatist attitude. it's not like toyota will threaten, but come on, you can't just be resigned to teh inevitable..

I don't know how Trulli can win a race without confidence.

Trulli's only mistake was not to add....."but Michael can be beaten". to his statement. Otherwise he is just echoing Button's words when he said Ferrari have such a big advantage that they could easily have lapped the whole grid if they wanted to last season. So easy on Trulli!!

What Trulli says doesn't really sound like what Ralf says!! Everyone's saying they're going to move up and surprise people. I expect Toyota to move forward
