Panasonic Toyota Racing left the Monaco Grand Prix empty-handed
despite a valiant effort from Jarno Trulli and Timo Glock. Following
yesterday's disappointing qualifying session, the team fully expected
a challenging race and prepared accordingly. Timo started the race
from the pit lane after modifications to the set-up of his TF109 and
both began on very heavy fuel loads, using the soft Bridgestone
Potenza tyres. They battled hard, however overtaking on the tight
Monaco streets is extremely difficult and this restricted progress.
By the time of Jarno's first pit stop - for another set of soft tyres
- he was 12th while Timo had easily the longest first stint of all
and had reached 11th place when he came in for super soft tyres.
Jarno needed a second stop for a final stint on super soft tyres,
which allowed Timo to get ahead. Timo battled past Nick Heidfeld in
the final laps and crossed the finish line inside the top 10 while
Jarno was 13th.
