Career
Early Career and Formula One
He began his motorsport career in 1997 at age 15. He has won several karting championships as well as the BMW ADAC Formula Junior Cup in 2000 and the Formula BMW ADAC Championship in 2001. In his first German F3 Championship season in 2002, he finished third in the standings en route to rookie of the year honors. In 2003, he competed in the Formula Three Euroseries, winning three races and scoring three other podium finishes, which were enough to place him in fifth position in the Championship. In addition to making his Formula One debut in Canada in 2004 - in which he finished 11th but inherited 7th following the disqualification of the Williams and Toyota cars - he finished out the season for Jordan Grand Prix, taking over from Giorgio Pantano for the last three races.
In he tested a F1 car again for BMW Sauber, which led to him being signed as the team's second test driver for .[1] Following the serious crash of regular BMW driver Robert Kubica in Canada, it was speculated that Glock could take over the drive. However, the team chose Sebastian Vettel to substitute instead.[2]
Champ Car

In 2005, Glock shifted his racing career to the United States, racing in the Champ Car World Series with Paul Gentilozzi's Rocketsports team. His best finish of the year was a second place finish at the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve in Montreal on August 28, where he was defeated by Oriol Servia. In the closing laps of the race Glock twice managed to retain the lead over Servia by missing the track's final chicane. As the rules require drivers who blatantly gain or retain a position by driving off the racing surface to give way, Timo was asked to move over by Champ Car officials, and let Servia take the lead. Timo obliged midway through the final lap, giving him enough time to try and take the lead back, but to no avail. Glock went on to finish 8th in the final season points standings and win Champ Car World Series Rookie of the Year honors.
GP2 Series
In 2006, Glock raced in the GP2 Series. He started the series with the midfield BCN Competicion team, gaining average results. However, a mid-season move to the front-running iSport team proved conducive and after a series of impressive results he finished 4th in the final classification of the Driver standings, leading to his re-signing for 2007 by the team. After 2 rounds he is leading the Championship Standings, finishing no less than 2nd in each race and winning the 2nd race in Barcelona.
