Trulli beats Kovalainen for first time in 2011

For the first time this season, Jarno Trulli on Saturday outqualified his teammate Heikki Kovalainen.

Italian veteran Trulli has been struggling all year with the power steering characteristics of Team Lotus’ T128 car.

Asked if he is disappointed to have been marginally pipped by Trulli in Montreal, Kovalainen told Finnish newspaper Turun Sanomat: "Not really.

"Jarno did a good job," he insisted.
