Glock happy with return and feeling fine

Timo Glock returned to the track on Thursday with Toyota for the first time since his heavy crash at Sunday's German Grand Prix. Glock took to the cockpit for the third day of Toyota's four-day programme at the Spanish circuit of Jerez. 

Glock had a busy day's running, working on set-up in the morning before aerodynamic comparisons in the afternoon. He reported no ill-effects from his accident on Sunday and he was just completing his programme when he stopped due to an issue with the fuel system. 

"It was good to get back in the car and that was a positive day's testing for us," said Glock "We pushed hard in the morning and we were able to get through most of our plan for the day before lunch. That was useful because in the afternoon here it gets too hot and the track is just too slow to get a clear picture out of the car. Late on we had a fuel system issue but we had already gathered the data we wanted. The main thing is that I've made a full recovery from my accident on Sunday and I feel fine."
