Nico and Timo play the blame game

Sunday 23rd March 2008

Nico Rosberg and Timo Glock are playing the blame game after a first corner incident ruined their chances of points in Sunday's Malaysian GP.

The two drivers came together on the opening lap at Sepang, with the result being that Glock was put out of the race and Rosberg lost time getting a new nosecone.

And as to be expected both drivers have a different view of the accident.

"I came together with Timo Glock," said Williams driver Rosberg. "When he left a gap, I went for it and I got alongside him.

"I guess he didn't see me as he turned in and I couldn't back out, which was unfortunate."

Glock, however, reckons it was Rosberg who made the error.

"At turn 14 I was hit from behind by Nico Rosberg," said the Toyota driver.

"When I looked in the mirror he was further back so I didn't expect him to try to overtake where he did.

"Then when I turned in he hit me on the rear right, breaking my rear suspension and putting me out of the race."
