Toyota's Trulli on pole for Bahrain GP

Italian veteran Jarno Trulli overcame worrying brake problems on his way to seizing pole position for Toyota for Sunday's Bahrain Grand Prix.

His Toyota teammate German Timo Glock took second alongside him to deliver the Japanese team their first lockout of the front row.


It was the fourth pole position of Trulli's career and his first since the Japanese Grand Prix in 2005.




"To be honest, I didn't feel very comfortable for the qualifying lap, I felt more competitive with the race pace.

But I knew I had a good car and could fight for pole so it was nice to end up with first and second, for the team especially it is great to show what a great result this is.

"But we need to analyse the data to see if we have a problem with the brakes, because it is a bit of a worry."

Glock, who had clocked the best time just before Trulli beat him for pole, said: "It was not too bad. We found quite a thing overnight. We struggled yesterday with the brakes quite a lot but we made good changes to the car."
