Oct.15 (GMM) Bruno Senna is expected to test for Honda's formula one team next month.
"I see myself in formula one soon, or at least I hope so," the nephew of the late triple world champion Ayrton Senna is quoted as saying by Spain's Diario Sport newspaper.
It is unknown where the 24-year-old GP2 runner-up's Honda test will take place, but it is expected to occur some time after the season ending Brazilian grand prix, which Senna will attend.
Along with Toro Rosso, Honda is among his best chances to make his grand prix debut in 2009.
The Brackley based Honda team has not yet confirmed either of its current drivers, Jenson Button and Rubens Barrichello, for next season.
It was rumoured at Fuji Speedway that an announcement could take place at Interlagos, which is set to stage the final race of 2009 near Senna's birthplace Sao Paulo early in November.
In related news, it is now believed that Danica Patrick, the popular female driver of the American open wheeler series Indycar, is not scheduled to test for Honda's F1 team any time soon.
