Glock confirmed at Manor
17th November 2009
The new Manor Grand Prix team have signed Timo Glock to a two-year deal, with the option of another season.
"The team may be small and new but it has big ambitions and a very impressive car," said Glock.
Manor technical director Nick Wirth said he was delighted to have secured a driver with a proven F1 record having raced in 36 grands prix, scoring 51 points.
"It has always been my recommendation that we have at least one driver with experience of the 2009 cars to help our development programme," he said.
"But to get a driver that has not only achieved podium finishes in 2009 but has such proven talent and the potential to take us forward for many years is very exciting.
"The fact that he has come and seen all aspects of the project before making his decision speaks volumes about what we have achieved so far.
"We just can't wait to get Timo into the new car once track testing begins next year."
