View Full Version : It's Official Timo Glock is Racing in GP2
Well too bad for Champcars, Timo Glock signed with BCN to race in GP2 this season. Eventhough he wasn't in a top team in champcars, Timo still impressed and showed his talent. I was hoping he'd fine a top seat for 06. To me it seems risky to take a step backwards, going to GP2, but then again another year in a backmarker team in Champcars won't do him any good either.

I'm sad to see him go.
Too bad. I'd think that after a year in GP2 Glock will get an F1 test drive job and then just disappear.

He was probably going to disappear anyway when his DHL money runs out.
I think his ride is without DHL (at least as a primary) which leads me to wonder where the bulk of last year's money might go. Has Deutsche Post backing for GP2.

DHL is owned by Deutsche Post. Global Mail is a service of Deutsche Post. He still has the same funding source as last year.
I should have known that, thanks. I'm just picking at straws. I'm reading where DeWalt is a Williams F-1 sponsor now which strikes me as ANOTHER lost opportunity.

Anybody with LOTSA money. As opposed to Coyne, which is anybody with SOME money. :p

No way! Those guys don't have money to run him. Montagny isn't bringing and sponsorship. Rocketsport will more then likely become another Coyne; a rental ride team running various guys throughout the year.

PG is the one who had fkm as a guest last year at one of the races. if fkm doesn't get the pkv ride, more than likely he'll get a rocketsport seat

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:
Psst...Marcus Marshall...maybe at Coyne. His dad is still pissed and will buy his way in someplace.
Like A1GP...Marcus says, "At least I'll be on a proper road circuit, all I've been doing is street circuits of late." He thinks 520hp won't be hard to handle after the 800hp Champcars. So, I guess your experience in CC was good for something, eh Marcus?
