Glock: Big unknowns for everyone in India

25 October 2011

Timo Glock is one of many excited by the potential action the Buddh International Circuit could throw up as it hosts the first ever Indian Grand Prix this weekend. Located near Greater Noida, the Hermann Tilke-designed track houses 16 corners (nine right, seven left) and measures 5.1 kilometres (3.2 miles) in length.

“A new race is always a big challenge for the whole team but at the same time it’s always very exciting to get to know a new country and drive at a new track,” says the German Virgin Racing driver.

“There are always some big unknowns but this time it’s the same for everyone, so what we have to do is focus hard on finding the right setup for the weekend.

“I’m really looking forward to discovering this new circuit - it looks like an exciting one, as it will have one of the highest average speeds in Formula 1 and there are a couple of challenging corners and good overtaking opportunities.

“We are getting to the end of the season; we continue to push to get the most out of the car and to take forward valuable lessons and information for next year.”
