Toyota Confirm Glock For 2008

-Glock's New Ride For 08-
Newly crowned GP2 champ, 25 year old Timo Glock who was the center of the tug of wars between BMW (as their now soon to be ex test driver) and Toyota (as their then potential 2008 driver) has finally got the green light from the CRB (Contract Recognition Board) to race for Toyota next year. Jogs your memory to when Jenson Button had overlapping double contracts a few years back ehh? This would be his return to F1 since he did compete in four grands prix for Jordan in 2004 and scored points on his debut in Canada. The deal is reported to be a multi-year deal. I wonder if he'd be any good next year in a hollow log on wheels...

-BMW's 3rd Fiddle Seat Up For Grabs!-
Now that BMW has an empty test driver seat, Dr Mario's (who's known for his eye to pick out drivers) out shopping for new drivers. As of right now they are eyeing British F3 champion Marko Asmer. But wait, they still have another possible candidate, Robert Doornbos. Yes, the dude who refers to himself as Bobby D! Thiessen said that there might be three guys out there on the scheduled shoot out at the up and coming testing at Jerez. Now, why in the world do you need to have a shoot out? I'm pretty sure you have seen their progress in there respective leagues and know what they are capable of. So what's with the need to have a darn shoot out? Just pick already!

-The Halted Driver's Market-
As of right now, we haven't heard a peep out of Fernando Alonso. Nothing! Nada! What? Is he spending time at home reflecting? And as for Heikki, he wants to stay with Renault, but is still without a seat next year. Do I hear McLaren picking up Heikki anyone?

*What a slow few days after the appeal it has been*
*Looking forward to the McLaren Appeal in December*
