Glock delighted with pole
12 May 2007Timo Glock scored his first ever pole in GP2 during qualifying for the Spanish Grand Prix. His team-mate Andreas Zuber secured second place on the grid to ensure a one-two for iSport International, which Glock puts down to the progress the team made over the winter.
Glock commented: "Already what we had in qualifying is what we had in Bahrain as well, but in Bahrain we had not the best qualifying and I think yesterday we got it together, especially for the last run on the new set of tyres. In the end we were on pole and Andi's in second place so it's great for the team, they did a perfect job I think. That's the hard work we did over the winter, especially the engineers and its great to be on the pole.
"The last time I was on pole was 5 years ago in Formula 3 in Germany, I think in Hockenheim but I can't remember really. It's a long time ago! So it's great to be on pole. Last year we were second in Magny Cours and really close to the pole and now its great to be on pole for the first time."
Glock also believes that having a quick team-mate in Zuber is giving him healthy competition and helping him push even harder.
"Andi was really quick in testing here and we're pushing each other every time which is good for the qualifying. When I saw his 28.1 I thought that was a good time, and a big step from free practice. I knew it would be hard to beat but I got it together and had a perfect lap and I think that the result of it is concentrated work. Don't look to the left, don't look to the right we just keep doing our job," he added.
