Toyota boss backs Glock

Toyota boss backs Glock

10 May 2008

Toyota's new driver this season, Timo Glock had an explosive debut for the team in Australia with a high-speed crash in the race, but beyond that has failed to stand out beyond team mate Jarno Trulli's performances.

"His confidence is growing," said Toyota motorsport president John Howett. "We are very happy. He is a cohesive part of the team and he has certainly shown at times that he has the capability to do a very strong performance. We are looking forward in the next few grands prix to really seeing the full potential."

"I think he had a very strong race in Barcelona, but he didn't manage really to get a strong lap in qualifying that he had shown in the first three that he could actually put in," he added. "It is part of the growing experience in F1 and getting used to the tyres, getting used to setting up the car for both the race and qualifying. We are very happy where he is at the moment and we expect a lot more performance in the next two to three races."
