Sutil Wants Trulli Crash In Past, Or To Draw Mickey Mouse

I bet he does! And Kimi. And another Kimi. Oh, and that whole run-in with Nick.

crash trulli sutil 588 But I digress.

Autosport is reporting that Adrian Sutil very much wants to put the Brazil crash to rest, although Jarno Trulli is still toting around โ€œphotographic evidenceโ€ of the come-together.

Hey, at least thereโ€™s something lively going on with the drivers!

Here it is in a nutshell :

"

When asked by AUTOSPORT if he felt the matter between himself and Trulli was now finished, Sutil said: โ€œHopefully it is. He will walk around with his pictures for a few weeks more and tell everybody butโ€ฆ [shrugs shoulders]

โ€œMaybe I will draw a picture for him with a Mickey Mouse, or Donald Duck or a Goofy or whatever. Itโ€™s done. I cannot listen to it any more.

โ€œThe last race was just really hard driving in a lot of cases, which is why we have to talk about it. It is always the same at the end of the season, everyone drives harder and harder, but as I said there will always be discussions about incidents as we are both racing, and we both want to win. But only one can win. That is the problem.โ€

Trulli said after the meeting that he hoped the drivers could get together again before the race on Sunday to discuss the clash further โ€“ as he felt it was too important to be ignored.

โ€œI didnโ€™t come here [to Abu Dhabi] to bring up anything. I didnโ€™t start the discussion at yesterdayโ€™s press conference,โ€ he said.

โ€œHe said he was hit on the back, so I said comment on this picture because I am next to you way before I was on the kerb. All I want is that we understand what happened there.โ€

Trulli confirmed he spoke to F1 race director Charlie Whiting about the incident, but refused to expand on what response he got.

โ€œI did talk to Charlie and I showed him the evidence, but Iโ€™m not going to tell you what happened,โ€ he said. โ€œItโ€™s a safety issue, and not just that accident, but a general trend over the last few races where some moves have been a little too much on the limit.

โ€œWe are going to set up a meeting with all the drivers because today was a very long driversโ€™ briefing and GPDA briefing.

โ€œWe should try and meet up on Sunday in order to discuss the behaviour, but if we canโ€™t agree between us, I know who I can trust and cannot trust. It doesnโ€™t change anything for me.โ€

Will this all be moot if Trulli doesnโ€™t get a drive next season?
