Timo Glock was taken to hospital but is basically uninjured following his crash during the German grand prix on Sunday.

On lap 36 at Hockenheim, the local driver lost control of his Toyota in the last corner with possible rear suspension damage, and hit the concrete pitlane wall backwards at high speed.

Clutching at his back, Glock was helped from the car by marshals, who provided him with an outdoor chair. He was then taken to the circuit medical centre.

"Timo is fine and there are no physical signs of injury," the Japanese team said later.

"He has been taken to a hospital for further precautionary checks," Toyota added.

Team principal Tadashi Yamashina said it is too early to determine the cause of the crash.

Timo Glock will spend the night in hospital, but he should be fit to return to the wheel of the Toyota when the championship resumes in Hungary in two weeks, team boss Takashi Yamashina said on Sunday.

The X-rays showed no injuries and the 26-year-old does not have concussion, Yamashina said in a statement.

"He will be kept in hospital overnight as is normal procedure in these situations," the Japanese added.

"We are extremely confident Timo will be fit for the Hungarian grand prix. Naturally he is a bit shaken by the accident but all the checks have shown he is fine so we are not worried about that," Yamashina said.
