It has been revealed by autosport.com that the german driver Timo Glock will test for BMW next week at Jerez. The former GP2 driver appears again in the BMW's aim, after previous rumours, but now it almost official, as he has already had a seat fitting in the Hinwil factory.

Even though the young promise Sebastian Vettel has participated as 3rd and reserve driver for the BMW Sauber Team in the last races and has surprised the paddock, it seems like BMW is reluctant to keep him. The reason for this is that he has also contract with Red Bull, and in 2008 the austrian drinks company would have full rights over Vettel, so BMW don't want to develop a driver that probably will not be able to race for them in the future.

So Glock will probably participate in at least in one of the escheduled day test a Jerez, southern Spain circuit.
