Glock delighted to get BMW chance

The German will test with BMW in Spain later this month and again in December.

Glock, 24, raced four times for the Jordan team in 2004 and scored points on his Formula One debut with seventh place at the Canadian Grand Prix.

He has since competed in the U.S. CART championship and in GP2, the Formula One feeder series.

"It's great to get that chance with BMW, and it's at the end of the month so we will see what happens with that," Glock told the official GP2 website.

"We'll see what comes after that, but it's great to do this test because for sure I wasn't thinking about doing a Formula One test at the start of this year: it's worked out really well, and it's another indication that GP2 is the right place to be if you want to have a chance to move up to Formula One." 

BMW have already confirmed their 2007 line-up, with Germany's Nick Heidfeld and Poland's Robert Kubica as race drivers and German teenager Sebastian Vettel as the official tester.

Despite the opportunity he will get, Glock is not getting carried away.

"Really, we have to see, but first of all I'm concentrating on trying to do a good job with Trident and then later to do a good job in my test with BMW, and anything else we will see what comes around in the next few weeks," added Glock.

"But it's great to have a few opportunities and that people are interested after this season: that is really good."
