Rubens Barrichello is set to test an Indy car following next month's Interlagos race, which could turn out to be the last grand prix of his long formula one career.
The 36-year-old Brazilian said at Fuji last weekend that the "silence" at Honda is becoming "tiresome", as he bids to remain with the Japanese team in 2009.

Is this with a view to getting a drive in the IRL, or is it merely a Honda driver testing another Honda car as Marco Andretti did some time ago? Although there was talk at the time of Andretti & F1 nothing has come of it for him.

Nice that Rubens will be testing for Penske, just as his friend Ayrton Senna did all those years ago, but I'd be surprised if we see him racing in the IRL in 2009.

To quote myself on another forum.

He has expressed interest in running the Indy 500, but I don't know if he would want to run the rest of the season.
