Ken Block to test F1 car

http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/92276

Can't see this as much more then a bit of fun for all involved. Ken is having way too much fun hooning around in the WRC and way to old to even consider an F1 career.

Still, perhaps the occasional sportscar appearance (ala Loeb) beckons if he performs well on a proper racetrack?

I can see a lot more of this type of thing happening in the future and I think it is good for F1 and racing in general..

Like the Lewis Hamilton and Tony Stewart exchange!

For a guy who currently has a career in 'looking cool' I'd imagine a career in the WRC is a long shot... a career in F1??? Not in my lifetime.
