Wurz happy to race if Honda need him

The Austrian, who last year competed with the Williams team, announced at the end of last season that he was retiring from racing. He was later on confirmed as test and reserve driver at Honda Racing for 2008.

And although Wurz has made it clear he has no intention to return to racing action in Formula One, the 33-year-old admits he would be ready to come out of retirement if Honda needed him.

"Look, no problem. If someone calls me in the morning and tells me that Rubens or Jenson slipped cleaning the bathroom, then I will jump in. I know what to do and I will do it with 100 percent," Wurz said.

"I retired as a racing driver. I said at the time that I was happy and keen to work with a team, but not at the forefront - instead to be a little bit of a step back. I wanted to test, develop and work with the engineers.

"It is something I always loved and it gives me a bit of a kick. Actually what I am doing right now is exactly what I hope to be doing in the future."

Wurz did not take part in the final race of last season with Williams after announcing his retirement.

The Austrian says his relationship with the team is still good despite his abrupt exit.

"That is a completely different matter. It is a closed chapter and I explained it at the time. I don't want to go into it," he said.

"Nevertheless, I still have contact with the team (Williams). Two weeks ago, when I came here for a seat fitting, I stopped with Frank Williams and we had a chat for two hours. It was the same with Patrick (Head) and Sam (Michael).

"I really, really enjoyed my time at the team, and the way it looked that it finished very sudden was definitely not how we are standing now.

"Each side still has a high respect. I had a good time, and I enjoyed it from the first to the last second. It is not like marriage where you have to be married forever. In racing, it is just that sometimes things change and you move somewhere else. That is what I have done."
