Struggling German driver not short on self-confidence

Timo Glock is a very talented driver, for sure, but he’s struggled to match Toyota team-mate Jarno Trulli this season. Okay, Trulli is having the season of his life, but we’d expect Glock to be a little closer to the veteran Italian.

Glock has just five points to his name so far this year, compared with Trulli’s 20-point haul. That hasn’t stopped the 26-year-old German from stating that his ambition is to be world champion - in a Toyota - in 2010. Yep, you read that right.

Glock told Sport Bild:

“Some people may laugh, but I want to become world champion with Toyota in 2010.”

First things first - at this rate, Glock will be lucky to still be in F1 in 2009, let alone 2010.

Secondly, he’s good - but not good enough to be world champion.

Do you think Glock could ever become world champion? Vote below:
