Question: We were in Spa this weekend, what do you associate with this circuit?
Timo Glock: Fun! It’s one of the best circuits in the world for me. It is a real driver’s track. And that is independent of the result. Sure, I would have liked to have finished in the points - obviously, it was not our game this weekend - but the enjoyment of driving here does compensate for that.
Question: Do you enjoy entertaining friends and family during a race weekend?
Timo Glock: It’s nice if my girlfriend can be here on a weekend, and having a few close friends at the track is also pretty fun - that’s been possible a few times this season.
Question: Do you get the chance to go out and socialize on Friday and Saturday night?
Timo Glock: Not really, no - I prefer to spend time with my engineers to improve the car and work out our strategy.
Question: Any drivers you particularly like hanging out with?
Timo Glock: I quite like to play poker with some of the guys, like Robert (Kubica), Tonio (Liuzzi) and Fernando (Alonso).
Question: How do you spend the morning on race Sunday?
Timo Glock: I relax as much as possible, although I also have meetings with my engineers during the morning to discuss race strategy, that kind of thing. It’s fun to watch the GP2 races so I always try to do that.
Question: If things don’t go your way and you retire early, do you prefer to get away as soon as possible, or hang out and watch the rest of the race?
Timo Glock: I like to watch the race because even though I am a Formula One driver, I am also a Formula One fan. Anyway we have a race debrief after the race so I need to stay for that, especially if things have not worked out well because then we need to find solutions.
