Former Red Bull racer and Honda test driver, Christian Klien, is hoping that next week’s test with the newly purchased Force India F1 team will result in a full time race seat in the upcoming 2008 Formula One championship season.
Speaking to the sport’s official website, the young Austrian explained that taking one year out of on track racing action was enough and the time had now come to get back behind the wheel in anger and will do anything it takes to make the Silverstone based squad realize he is the man for the job.
"If Force India chooses to develop a shoot-out I will do whatever I am asked to do, give it my best and not worry about the other drivers," he said. "When I was winning in karting, Formula Renault and F3, against other current F1 drivers, I never worried about them, just the challenge of making the car work properly and racing well.”
“So much in racing is about the equipment you have and the people in the team supporting you, so when you have an equal chance it's easier to show what you can do. One year of testing was enough, I need to race." |
