The streets of Rotterdam in the Netherlands will ring to the sound of Formula 1 this weekend when Jarno Trulli demonstrates a TF107 for Toyota at the Bavaria City Racing event on Sunday.
Just one week before the European Grand Prix on the new street circuit in Valencia, Trulli will be back behind the wheel of a TF107 on a 2.2km track through the centre of Rotterdam.
The spectacular downtown lay-out gives fans a superb chance to see a Formula 1 car close up, with Trulli crossing the Willemsbrug bridge and passing some of the city's most recognisable landmarks on Coolsingel before the track loops back on itself at Hofplein.
Toyota will also be part of a Formula 1-style paddock area which will be open to VIPs on Sunday, giving a Grand Prix atmosphere and the chance to see the team working close up.
"It's very exciting to get the chance to show everyone in Rotterdam what Formula 1 is all about," said Trulli. "Driving through the centre of the city will certainly be spectacular to watch and very exciting for me as the driver too. I expect it to be a great show and it will really build the anticipation for the street race in Valencia. I have never driven at this event in Rotterdam before but I won the Monaco Grand Prix a few years ago so I think I can manage!"
