Klein 'comfortable' after IRL debut.

Andretti Green Racing Indy Pro Series driver Jonathan Klein successfully completed his first IndyCar test at The Milwaukee Mile on Monday, splitting time with Dario Franchitti as part of the new IRL programme designed to create more opportunities for Indy Pro Series drivers.

During his half-day stint in the car, Klein - the son of a long-time team sponsor - ran approximately 95 laps around the one-mile oval, working his way to a set-up with which he could begin to push his boundaries.

"As a whole, the team did a great job giving me a car that I felt confident in. I'm just very happy. It felt good and I can't wait to go at it again."
