Teams have announced their driver line-ups for this week’s pre-season test, in Jerez.
Eleven of the thirteen entrants for this season’s world championship are scheduled to take part in the four-day event, with Lotus expected to debut their new T127 for the first time.
As ever, the teams have divided the four days equally amongst its two drivers. However there are a few expections.
On the first day of testing (17 February) the Force India VJm03 will be shared between race driver Tonio Liuzzi and reserve driver, Paul Di Resta. Lotus will also use day one to give their tester, Fairuz Fauzy,the chance to debut the car and gain experience.
Virgin is the only team yet to announce its full line-up for Jerez. The team will be hoping to clock-up as much mileage as possible, after their new car suffered an erroneous debut.
USF1 and Campos will not attend the event.
