Klien back at the wheel at Jerez as Button suffers back complaints
The Honda Racing F1 Team continued its test programme at the Jerez circuit in Spain today. Jenson Button was scheduled to drive the Honda RA107 but arrived in Jerez not fully recovered from a slight back complaint believed to have been caused during his first corner incident during the race at Indianapolis on Sunday. The team took the decision to allow Jenson further time to recover with Christian Klien therefore deputising today.
Following an installation day shaking down the new mechanical parts yesterday, Christian spent today’s running completing a more detailed evaluation of various aerodynamic and mechanical updates for the RA107, completing a total of 61 laps.
Jenson will be back in the car tomorrow for the final day of the test.
