Glock signs for Manor GP

Didn't see this posted yet on Fchat. F1.com is reporting Timo Glock has signed for Manor GP. No announcement on their second driver yet.

 

Chirp. Chirp. Chirp.

Sorry, the "Timo Glock Watch" is not a real bell ringer.

 

I actually think he deserved better than a newcomer. He was considering Renault, but i think he's afraid they might do a Toyota.

 

He cost Massa the World Championship so serves him right!.
(I was glad he wasn't seriously injured in the Suzuka crash though, I'm not that bitter! )

 

LoL...my point was...he's a decent driver. I just hope he does well.

 

+1 on that. He does deserve a place on the grid and to be honest, I had almost forgiven him (only almost though).

At least he'll have another chance to show how well he can do.

 

Looking past the final race there were plenty of times when Massa or the Ferrari team cost him that championship. No need to blame Glock for their failing unless it helps you sleep at night.

>8^)
ER

 

No,no,no, Ferrari can do no wrong and it was all Glocks fault!.

I always sleep well after punching the c**p out of My life size picture of Timo Glock, makes Me pretty tired!.

(In reality, I am aware that it was more than just that moment that cost Massa the Championship overall ).

 

Ahh you had me worried there Phill..

 

Was Glock going to go Renault...?

 

Glock and Heidfeld were both in the running. I wonder who'd be left if Nick goes to Brawn. Kobi?

 

I'm more wondering why Glock picked Manor instead of Renault, is it a sign that Renault are pulling out.

Kobi should get picked up, the little he has done has been very impressive.

 

Who is Kobi ?

Kovalainen?

Kubica ?

 

Kamui Kobayashi, the replacement driver for Glock at Toyota when he got injured.

 

Hasn't Heifeld a job with Sauber next year?

The team will surely be on the grid next year, now that Toyota pulled out, no?

I am still expecting Renault to announce they pull out!!

The board meeting is at the begining of December, and I presume that they are crunching the numbers right now, as to what solution will cost them the least!!

I understand that Red Bull was sounding Mercedes lately, looking for an alternative source of engine.
They probably know something the rest of us only guess...

 

Here's what i think is gonna happen :

Nick Heidfeld - Mercedes GP
Koby - Lotus
Trulli - Lotus

 

I thought he'd end up with a better team.

 

+1!

If Mercedes sees ANY sense at all they would stop their stupid talks with Heidfeld and just get Kobayashi on board. Right now he's still cheap and I'd like to see him deal with a capable car (really, he was aiming above what the Toyota already was capable off...Imagine what he can achieve with a better car!!!).

 

Nonsense, everyone knows that a guy should be able to keep pace on slick tyres in the rain when everyone else is on inters and full wets.
