Rubens Barrichello will test an Indycar next week at the behest of his close friend and series driver Tony Kanaan. It is believed Kanaan suggested the available Barrichello would be an ideal driver to advise KV on the setup of Indycar's 2012 single seater, and KV team owner Jimmy Vasser agreed. "After you (Barrichello) play with my toy you'll give it back, right? It's mine!" joked Kanaan. "As we can't keep the secret anymore, Rubens Barrichello will be testing for us. Very proud he can help KV Racing and myself with his feedback," he added on Twitter.
Barrichello's assistant Anderson Marsili confirmed the news. "It's an old invitation but now that he has no contract for 2012, he has accepted it to give his help and his opinion to his friend," he said. "It's nothing more than that."
