Glock still gunning for first finish

Timo Glock is still aiming to make it to the chequered flag for the first time as a Toyota driver, having suffered two accidents in the first two races of the season.

"It is very disappointing that I have not finished a race yet for Toyota but I hope that will change in Bahrain," said Glock. "The accident in Malaysia was unfortunate and it stopped me fighting for points, which I am sure I could have done. However, I prefer to look forward and I am still positive, especially after qualifying in the top 10 for both races so far."

"The test in Bahrain last month went well and the information we got from that should help us a bit this weekend, even if the temperature seems likely to be quite a bit hotter than when we were last there," he added. "The car has also improved quite a bit since that test but there is still work to do to adjust it to my driving style. Obviously my first target is to finish the race after my bad luck in the first two races but I think I can again reach Q3 and hopefully finish in the top eight for the first time with Toyota."
