(GMM) IRL champion Tony Kanaan will test BAR's F1 car later in 2005.
The Brazilian, friend and countryman of the Honda powered team's sporting director Gil de Ferran, is 'definitely' to get a go, Gil said.
And Kanaan added: ''Gil said it's going to happen with the Honda people. It'll be a dream.''
Brackley based BAR will have a race vacancy next year if Jenson Button completes his highly anticipated switch to Williams.
Kanaan suggested that the test was serious, rather than a Danica Patrick-like demo stunt.
''If (BAR) like me,'' he continued, ''they'll have to ask (team boss) Michael (Andretti) what's going to happen.''
