The Force hasn't been with Panasonic Toyota Racing this weekend, but in the final qualifying session of the day the Empire Strikes Back with Jarno Trulli putting in a brilliant lap to take fifth position for today’s race.
During the final qualifying session of the weekend Toyota's Jarno Trulli showed their true form by jumping Williams' Nick Heidfeld to take fifth position on the grid. Ralf Schumacher and Juan Pablo Montoya failed to make any appearance onto the track this morning, the drivers already starting from the back of the grid will most probably be heavily fueled when it comes to the start of the race.
With overtaking difficult, and some of the drivers out of position on the grid, the 2005 Monaco Grand Prix should not be one to miss!
