Trulli sent packing – Just for the weekend...

In case Y’all haven’t heard, Karun “Cowboy” Chandhok has been inserted into Trulli Scrumptious’s (Jarno Trulli) Lotus F1 seat for the German GP weekend, as apparently Trulli’s continuous ‘wingeing on about the Loti’s recalcitrant power steering woes is the excuse being used to give ‘Cowboy a chance this weekend.

And nope, this ‘kuhBoy isn’t to be cornfuzed with somebody with the same handle stateside, as apparently that’s Juan ‘O Randy “the CandyMann” Bernard’s handles, eh? As thee Fastest Indian – certainly FASTER then the recently demoted Hispania Racing F1 driver Narain Karthikeyan; Chandhok got the ‘KuhBoy nickname from SPEED’s Bob Varsha during the furvour over the upcoming 2012 Austin F1 race announcement when it was divulged that Karun’s MaMa was from the Lone Star state...

Now obviously this weekend baptism-under-fire is certainly a pre-cursor to Chandhok’s inclusion at Team Lotus 2.0 for the forthcoming inaugural Indian Grand Prix; Uh Duh! Where I’d assume there’ll be two Indian’s upon the grid – with Karthikeyan substituting for Daniel Ricciardo at Hispania, which will certainly help the beating of the drums for the Indian GP’s promoters, etc. As Yuhs can read the glowing Lotus PressSpeak below...

Chandhok to race Trulli’s Lotus in Germany


NO word on whether or not Jarno will be spending a quiet weekend upon der Mosel River drown ding his sorrows in a bottle of his own vino, Ja Ja?
