Timo Glock will be back in action at
Jerez this week, when he joins the Panasonic
Toyota Racing team for day three of its four-day test.
The 26-year-old spent Sunday night in hospital in Ludwigshafen for precautionary checks after his heavy crash in the German Grand Prix at Hockenheim.
He returned home on Monday morning for rest and further medical tests. Those tests have confirmed Timo suffered no injuries or concussion. Therefore he has been given the all clear to return to the cockpit on Thursday before he competes in the Hungarian Grand Prix.
"I am fine. I spent Sunday night in the hospital but only so the doctors could complete their checks," he explained. "They ran x-rays and an MRI scan and found no problems at all, so I went home on Monday morning for some rest and more checks with my doctor.
"It was a really hard impact and my back hurt immediately after I got out of the car but now it is fine.
"Actually, the crash looked worse on TV than it really was. I was running well [just prior to it] and looking set for the points but I ran a little wide on the last corner of lap 35. That wasn't a major problem because most cars were doing that at some stage in the race but I just felt the back of the car go.
"I tried to catch it but I was not able to. I had no control at that point and was just a passenger. When I saw it later on TV I could see something broke in the right rear suspension.
"I am looking forward to getting back in the car on Thursday now. We will be preparing for the Hungarian Grand Prix so it is an important test and I am pleased I can contribute.
"Then of course I will be racing in Hungary where I expect the same strong performance level and hopefully a points finish."
Following Glock's accident, Toyota 'immediately' began an investigation to determine the cause and this has been traced to the right rear toelink/trackrod.
