It was a strange weekend for Renault in Hungary when Fernando Alonso was flying along while Jarno Trulli appeared to be going much slower.
I think Trulli is not motivated enough for the rest of the season even though he will then be leaving.
He has his own version of what's been happening and he dropped back mysteriously in Hockenheim and we still don't know the reason why his Renault fell back then.
Trulli was setting some quite quick laps at the beginning and he made an incredible start from ninth place and came storming round the outside.
Trulli may shed some light on this himself especially when he says he hopes he wil be able to do well before the end of the year.
My interpretation is that everything is being done around Alonso and he is getting second-class treatment.
And that was what happened with Jenson Button when he was being replaced at Renault by Alonso.
He had been ahead up to that point and had been beating Trulli but Trulli then came to the fore towards the end of the season.
So you can switch emphasis technically from one driver to another and I think that's what Trulli is suggesting.
