Timo Glock
"It was a really good weekend and this is a great reward for the team. After a solid qualifying the pace was good in the race, so I'm really happy for the team and for myself. It was important to get ahead of Fernando (Alonso) on the first lap and I was disappointed that I succeeded at the start. I saw that he was fighting with Mark (Webber), I jumped and passed. It paid off, because afterwards our strategy worked well, it's "It was the key point of my race. Throughout the race I focused on my speed and we didn't make any mistakes. This is a brilliant result for Toyota ahead of the Japanese Grand Prix. It's important for the whole team; the mechanics and engineers as well as the people back home in Cologne and Japan. The car worked well today with the new package and I hope we can be competitive in Suzuka."

Jarno Trulli:
"It was a really tough race and there wasn't much that went right for me. As soon as I got out of traffic the safety car came on at the wrong time for me, just as I was going through the pits for my first stop "I wasn't particularly competitive all weekend and I was struggling with traction so we need to take a look at this. On the positive side, second place for Timo, it's a great result for the team, who really appreciate it." he deserves it. Timo had a great race and I'm happy for his podium, but it's also good news for us for the constructors' championship."
