Timo Glock has been given the all-clear to drive his Toyota at a three-day test in Spain this week despite being held in hospital overnight last Sunday.

The German driver was involved in a high-speed crash in his home grand prix at Hockenheim, which it later emerged was caused by a failure of the right rear toelink/trackrod.

Glock was taken to the local Ludwigshafen hospital for precautionary checks and returned home on Monday morning to rest and undergo further medical tests, which revealed no injuries or concussion.

"I am fine," he said.

"I spent Sunday night in the hospital but only so the doctors could complete their checks.

"It was a really hard impact and my back hurt immediately after I got out of the car but now it is fine. Actually, it looked worse on TV than it really was."

He continued: "I have spent a little time at home relaxing and now I am ready to drive again.

"Physically, I feel absolutely fine so I am looking forward to getting back in the car on Thursday.

"We will be preparing for the Hungarian grand prix so it is an important test and I am pleased I can contribute.

"Then, of course, I will be racing in Hungary where I expect the same strong performance level and hopefully a points finish."
