Laying the foundations: Interview with Timo Glock
Timo Glock had a sound first season with Toyota this year and believes that he - and teammate Jarno Trulli - are well placed to take another step forward in 2009
When announcing that Sebastien Vettel had won the Autosport Awards Rookie of the Year, presenter Steve Rider couldn't resist a chuckle when noting that Timo Glock had also figured in the voting.
While there was little doubt that the trophy would be heading to Vettel, Rider was a little harsh on the Toro Rosso star's countryman. In his quiet and unobtrusive way, Glock had an excellent first season at Toyota, and crucially he finished the year on a swing of upward momentum that should continue into 2009.
