Jarno Trulli, fresh from claiming his first podium since 2005, believes he driving better than ever.

The Toyota driver finished third behind the two Ferraris at the French Grand after holding off McLaren's Heikki Kovalainen for most of the afternoon.

Trulli, who has already picked up 18 points so far this season, says experience is one of the main reasons why he continues to improve.

"I think I am driving better than ever. I have experience and I believe I improve every year because you always learn from mistakes or from your experiences," he said.

"With a competitive car I can fight at the front, I am sure of that. In France I showed how determined and hard-headed I am; I fought to the end and really enjoyed the battle."

The Italian is confident the TF108 will help the team to improve even further.

"This year we are much more competitive; the car seems more balanced and I am able to push more because it is very drivable. Quite simply, the car is quicker than last year and that means we are more competitive."
