Italian driver surprised by interest in him but will not rush decision

Jarno Trulli says he has been surprised by the amount of offers he has already received since being dropped by Caterham. The Italian is eager to continue his career in motor sport, but it seems unlikely that the 37-year-old will be able to return to Formula One as a race driver. Trulli claims he does have opportunities outside F1, though, but will not rush into a decision on what the next step of his career will be. "I was very surprised by the fact that one or two days later, I had already received some offers. I didn't think that it would move so quickly," Trulli told Autosport. "But I don't want to take any decisions now. I want to put all of the offers on the table and see what is the best for me. At the moment, I have no plans." Trulli also stated that he did not limit his options and is open to the prospect of racing in American-based series such as NASCAR and IndyCar. He added: "I'm open to any possibilities as far as top level and professional racing is concerned. "I'm happy to work hard, to go testing, to develop a project but I want something with a structure that at least gives me the potential for performance. "NASCAR and IndyCar could be a possibility, but obviously I don't have sponsors. I've never had that in my career so I've had to deal with my talent and nothing else."
