Germany's Glock to test for BMW Sauber(Reuters)Updated: 2006-11-08 09:16 Germany's Timo Glock will test with BMW Sauber in Spain this month, the Formula One team said on Tuesday. Glock, 24, raced four times for the Jordan team in 2004 and scored points on his Formula One debut with seventh place at the Canadian Grand Prix. He has since competed in the U.S. CART championship and in GP2, the Formula One feeder series. "This test drive was planned long ago but had to be postponed due to the hand injury that Timo sustained in the GP2 race in Monza," said team boss Mario Theissen in a statement. "We have kept a close eye on Timo Glock since his successful time in Formula BMW and are now keen to get a more accurate impression." BMW have already confirmed their 2007 line-up, with Germany's Nick Heidfeld and Poland's Robert Kubica as race drivers and German teenager Sebastian Vettel as the official tester. Glock will test with Kubica in Barcelona on November 30 and with Heidfeld in Jerez on December 8.
