Davidson will be OK for Monaco

BAR Honda third driver Anthony Davidson will be fit and well for the forthcoming Monaco Grand Prix, where he will be doing much of the team's preparation work in the Thursday practice sessions in the Principality. Davidson suffered a trap nerve in a recent test at Paul Ricard.

"The test was obviously very brief because of the back problem," Davidson said. "It really hurt! Since Tuesday I have been having physiotherapy and my back is on the mend and I'll certainly be ready and raring to go in Monaco. It is a track that I have never raced on but I have always dreamed about."
