Klien health bill

Austrian rookie Christian Klien has declared himself fit for this weekend’s French Grand Prix despite being injured in a freak accident.

The Jaguar driver sliced the top of his right index finger off after fumbling with a cooling fan last week, forcing him to sit out testing.

There had been worries the youngster may be unable to drive at Magny-Cours but the deep gash is beginning to heal and Klien is confident his driving will not be impaired.
