Kanaan to test BAR
IRL star to run at Jerez

(GMM) Reigning IRL champion Tony Kanaan's long awaited F1 test for BAR will take place next week.

The 30 year old Brazilian, a close friend of countryman, former rival and BAR sporting director Gil de Ferran, will drive the car at Jerez (Spain) next Thursday in a link-up with F1/IRL engine partner Honda.

''Having this chance means a lot to me. I am honoured,'' Kanaan said. It will be his first taste of grand prix machinery.
